    The Administrator’s account can never be locked out, even if u take 4
    incorrect attempts.
    Another option, different from the one that you are using currently, is to
    join the machine to another domain or
    to set the machine as a standalone workstation (taking it out from any
    domain is recomended) and, after that, to change the
    settings in the local security policies.
