As an additional FYI, I did have a custom password filter
installed at one time. This filter was removed from the
system (DLL was deleted) and the references to this file
were removed from the Registry. Do I need to register a
DLL or OCX for ADAM to work? If so, is there a default
Microsoft password complexity DLL?
