<Why do you say that?>

Scott - do you meant in regards to the 10 character password ?
If so, use Google and find some password cracking programs. It would take no
time at all to get a password like that.

We had a problem here last week where one of the owners friends loaded XP on
his notebook months ago and never told anyone the password and then it was
forgotten. I found a program that you copy to a DISKETTE (it is that small)
and go to the PC, stick it in the drive, hit Start/Run A:\QD and in SECONDS
you have the Windows ENCRYPTED password file. Then it's back to my PC where
the main program is and in less than an hour I have every Account and
Password on this XP box. Know that isn't AS/400 but if someone is "sniffing
the wire" a 10 character password is weak...
