Help, how do I get around the fact that I cannot remember my networking password for Windows 95.There must be a way around this.

Windows keep all passwords in an ecrypted file on your hd.. It is next to impossible to crack it; yet i have seen it done. The only other way is to log on as default user search for *.pwl or (YOURNAME).pwl. then delete it. Next time you log on as you it will ask for a new password. You will retain the same settings and everything this JUST WIPES THE PASSWORD CLEAN.
