    If the password reset does not work, I think that your password is the same as it is with other Windows Live Essentials software; if you use any
    Windows Live Essentials 2011 - Download free Microsoft programs

    Sorry, I misunderstood, see if this helps it sounds like it should be what ever it is that your ISP gave you.
