I tested it and it seem to work as claimed. Resetting Linux passwords via the boot loader or a live CD isn't hard. But Kon-Boot looks useful for resetting password on Windows machines.

The key difference with Kon-Boot is that you aren't resetting the password, but bypassing it altogether. The machine leaves virtually no trace of having been compromised (though careful study of log files, registry keys, etc could turn up some clues). For simply resetting a Windows user password, Offline NT Password & Registry Editor is swell: http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/ http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/
