Is there not some type of default that I can use?

No, there is no "default". You can change the local administrator's password to a blank with third-party tools, but if this computer is going to go back to work with you, then your IT Dept. will be cross with you. Probably you should just wait until tomorrow and get it taken care of properly, but it's your choice. http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/ Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
