Windows 7 password can be removed. How do I fix this?
I am always trying to find ways to make my system more secure. Yesterday I found this and was somewhat worried, but considered it suspicious because they wanted money. However, I did some research and found a free program that did exactly the same thing. I set up a virtual machine with windows 7 and ran the utility at boot. Within about 5 - 10 button presses and about 1 minute, I had completely removed my administrative accounts password. I was astounded at how easy it was to gain access to my PC. Now I want to fix this issue; however besides setting a BIOS password and placing my PC in a safe, I'm not sure how.
