Simply log in using the built-in Administrator account (which *cannot*
be deleted) and modify the desired account. By design, the only way to
log into the Administrator account of WinXP Home is to reboot into Safe
Mode. For WinXP Pro, pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL twice at the Welcome Screen
will produce the standard login dialog box.
