    You better should change your password policies.

    But: yes, that's possible. Start regedt32 as user SYSTEM (for example
    by using

    C:> AT 23:42 /I CMD

    and starting regedt32 from that shell. Then have a look at the SAM.
    In the Windows Resource-Kit you find tools which work on the registry
    from scripts.

    A problem: finding out the right hashes. So perhaps you
    will just use l0pht crack to crack the passwords and have
    a plain text list. The old version of lßpht is free.

    Have fun,
    VB.
