Interesting, this could have been really useful 20 years back.
But really, once you got physical access to a computer, most security is worthless.
All you need is a Linux USB stick.
and further more why do i even need a sig? |

Including Windows NT4 up to Windows XP you could blank out the administrator password with just a bootable CD 
Dont know if Vista or Windows 7 can be simarily cracked.

With a Linux install you can access any non-encrypted file on Windows 7 (IE everything you didn't specifically encrypt), administrator or not.
You could probably manually add an admin account through there.

IIRC on most Windows 9x PC's you could bypass the login just by pressing the escape key...
I haven't had to force my way into a Vista/Win7 PC yet so I dunno if the XP password reset linux sticks/disks work on those.

Seen one similar stuff for Vista. Don't know about W7 (but it's obvious it must exist.)

in windows 7 you can press shift-f10 to open the console during install, then type in the command to edit users. can't remember what it was, but its the same as opening the window in control panel.

In windows 95/98/98SE, and possibly ME, there was a bug in file sharing where if a computer had file sharing on, you could access all its drives in read/write by typing in
\\<target ip address\$C
or possibly
\\<target ip address\C$
into the run menu in any windows computer on the internet to pop up a window with full read write to the target computer over the internet or any network with no password required, even if the file sharing on the target computer normally requires a password, or even if it's installed and running with zero shares active or read only shares.

Not a bug either. Just user ignorance on what happens when you turn file sharing on, and dont kill those shares or protect them with a password.
On those ancient Windoze' you had no file security, so the only way to 'protect' a share was a per share password. Default it had none.
On ANY system that does not have encrypted file systems, if you have physical access, you can access the data. End of story.
