Thanks, Ronnie. Another reason I want to know their passwords is to be able
to get into other places like their email and see what they are sending
/receiving. I suspect that just like me, they use the same password for
everything. So, I ask again, is it possible to extract their password from
Vista? I know I can change their password but that defeats my purpose of
checking on their mysterious activities without their knowledge. Please,
please help me.
thanks again.
