Sometimes YOU are the admin=) hard to ask yourself a password.


On a side note who in the world forgets a password? I mean YOU created it
The reason that I gave that answer is that it's not up to the user to know the passwords at a company (security and all that shit).

Or if the computer is at home the admin is a parent...
