The Ultimate Boot CD allows you to reset the Administrator's password to whatever you'd like it to be. Simply download and burn the ISO, reboot your machine to boot from the CD, and run the Offline NT Password & Registry Editor to reset the password.

for future reference. If you have a sibling rivalry (which was my case) and you want to get on their computer, but they passworded it. Just reboot in safe mode, and remove the password all together.

Do you mean without being intrusive? without actually being inside the account?

well to tell you the truth you dont need a boot cd to get on anyones computer. But I am sure this is not the place to be talking about this, if we have solved the problem.

tried rebooting in safe mode (F8) but it still presents the same XP log-in screen - is there another way of rebooting directly into safe mode, bypassing the usual XP log-in dialogue?
