Simply log in using the built-in Administrator account (which
cannot be deleted) and modify the desired account(s) and use Start > Run

Failing that, Linux-based password cracking utilities abound on the

The built-in Administrator account *CANNOT* be deleted.

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.
