    Default Windows 7 Password help

    Hi, I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro with Windows 7 o/s. I originally installed AVG 90-day trial. Unfortunately the kids picked up something that crashes Firefox all the time so I cannot purchase an AVG license and update antivirus defs. So i did a restore back to a point a few months ago, rebooted, and now the windows password does not work.
    How do i get Windows 7 started if i cannot remember the password?

    Well, that's a sign of things to come.

    I remembered and successfully input the "power on" password. But my daughter set up an account in W7 and it's the only account and that's the password i don't have
