Win98 Login Help

Please Help - I lost my password for win 98. I need to change my settings to get onto the internet so I cannot just bypass the username and password. Is there a way to reset or delete the password so I can set it up again? Or can I setup another with my new settings?

Re: Win98 Login Help

If you can past the logon and get to the desktop, in search find *.pwd, when you find your.pwd, delete it, reboot and you'll be prompted for a new pasword.
