mmm... just out of curiosity, what password expires in windows xp? I have to admit I've never been asked by the system to renew any password. Can anyone tell me what kind of password expires in XP?

In windows XP the if password expiry is set, it would ask you to change the password after a fixed number of days say 45 days. This is done to ensure higher security to your system rather than having the same password all thru. This is not an issue in case of a home PC but in a shared environment the security is a prime concern. Cheers

There is a more simple way of doing this, i will explain later on i guess. The run step and configing it from the advanced interface is not the way to go if your choosing to go with the standard windows format. I dont feel like explaining the steps right now but i will post them in a couple of hours or so.

Make A Moderately-secure Password System Using Javascript
using file redirection to hide the password. (11) JavaScript is very handy at making forms, allowing for much more customization and easier ways to
send data. So making Login forms using JavaScript may seem to many to be a very feasable idea.
However, JavaScript is very bad at protecting Passwords, as since the passwords are not encypted and
the whole JavaScript code is in the page, a person could just view the Page Source and find out
everything. Even if you use an external JavaScript, it would still be poor as the file name for the
external JavaScript would still be revealed. But I have an answer! There is a relative....

different applications use in order to run. DLLs are stored in RAM whenever the applications load
them; when you quit a program, XP is supposed to release the DLL from memory. But some DLLs can get
