XP Home or XP Pro?

(Pretty sure PRO.. but..)

If Home..
Reboot into Safe Mode and log in as the administrator and put your documents
elsewhere..
Or
Take ownership of the administrator's folder.. (links later in this
answer.)

If Pro..
Reboot and at the welcome screen, press CTRL+ALT+DEL twice.. Log in as
administrator.
Or
Take ownership of the administrator's folder

Restart the computer. After the Power On Self Test (POST), press and hold the F8 key.
Select the administrator account. (Usually no password, just click on it)
