Yep. Works fine with any ntfs file system ..
directly edits the SAM file, and changes the
passwd to whatever you want. Has never
failed on any system I've tried .. NT4, W2K, XP

Not anymore. That little laptop program was
running remote. Guy says he can sit outside a
building and see other systems. This wireless
thing is a whole new ballgame ( ugh - metaphor )!
I just put in a request to my dept to get me
one. I need to go talk to the hacker students
and get them to teach me how to vandalize
proper. Then I can MAYBE defend my labs.
It is scary to see how really smart some of
this crap is. My little proxy server is only 30k,
and it ate our network security. I'm having to
gpedit every single system by hand to prevent
proxy access now. Of course the laptops can
hook in by USB, and get right out on wireless.
