I would like to introduce Windows Login Recovery . It not only supports XP, 2000, and NT, I have personally tested it with Vista Home Premium and Ultimate. It works perfectly to reset any local user account to a blank password. I Wrote it to an old 128mb USB flash drive do this. Booting up and clearing a password takes a minute or two works like a charm. You can download it from http://www.windowsloginrecovery.com

this one is useful only if user has created the password reset disk when he/she can login into the windows. If user has forgotten his/her password without creating this disk, then he/she has to find some password resetter softwares to reset their password :)
