I ran a "Restore CD" that came with my computer which
copied all my old files into a back-up directory.
Previously a password was required at boot-up to access my
user profile/settings. Now all the files within this file
are not accessable. Tried loging in as administrator -
still not access. I heard there is a program that can
hack thru the password to get to the files. Anyone know
where/how to get this program or other solution.

Thanks
