ANOTHER NOTE: as the original intent of this article was not reseting the password but instead a way of gaining SYSTEM account access to run explorer and other windows programs I found this to be a fantastic article. I was simply seeing that the intent of many was to use this for reseting passwords I thought ide show an easier way. Many of you I dont think see the full benifits one gets from being able to run explorer and its dependencies from the SYSTEM account. Many props to the author of this article for the great information There is a much easier way to change passwords of accounts

goto START >> RUN

type:

net users

this shows a list of users

next type:

net user USER *

where user is the user name exactly and dont forget the * afterwards then it should say please type password and then make you confirm it to delete the password simply hit enter without entering a password and again to confirm it

NOTE: this does require admin privliges in the first place but is an easy reset for admin accounts or other user accounts you dont remember the password to or if you are the system admin and need access to the account.

This won't work on any modern xp system from inside a limited account. This does have it's uses, but not as practical privilege escalation. Look for the "net use" buffer overflow to get privilege escalation. the at command, by default, is only available for administrators anyway so whats the point?

I typed at command again and it said error and listed the job as tomorrow. I typed the command perfectly... tried it 4 times, copied & pasted then changed time. Shows correctly until go time comes then "at" lists at error tomorrow. This didn’t work for me. svchost.exe window never opened up.
