RE: Local Vista User Account using Domain Security Pol?

This happens when you have a GPO applied to an OU that contains this
computer, and the GPO sets password policy. In other words, locally, no you
can't do anything as this is enforced using GPOs.

If you are the domain admin, however, you can restructure your GPOs. One
option would be to create a new OU for computers that should not have this
policy. Then either make sure this GPO does not apply to that OU, or set a
new GPO that overrides this one.
