I got nothing to offer that much brighter minds than I have posted, but I am really curious what this kid is doing.

Then just write the password on a Post-It and stick it on the monitor - I found that is very helpful for passwords I forget.

The never-ending fun that is my boss and technology...
Since we are a small (7 people) company, we do not use an Exchange Server: we just use POP email from Go Daddy. Not the best solution, but it gets the job done. I am the one who does the minor maintenance (adding/deleting users, etc.), so I have access to our Admin on Go Daddy.
A while back, the ever-paranoid boss wanted his password changed for his email so that no-one would know what it was - even me. I didn't bother to tell him that I can see his email at any time I want through the Admin function.
He recently got an iPhone and wanted his work email synced with his iPhone. He completely forgot that he set his password to something opnly he knew and did not know what it was (and also claimed that he never did this). So I reset it for him.
