This is a tutorial for accessing the SYSTEM account on a windows XP system. the SYSTEM is the equivalent to a root account on a *nix system. The SYSTEM account can be accessed from any account on the local computer, even the guest account. This tutorial was NOT made by me (found on digg).

From this account you can do anything to the XP system such as: Remove/change administrator password, End system Processes, etc
