This problem is probably with Windows xp home itself but I would like to
report here first.
dual boot xp home/ubuntu hardy 8.04.1 lts
I tried to gain access to a password protected user account on the xp
partion while running Ubuntu. I expected to be blocked just as I would
if running xp. I was not and gained access to all files and folders for
the account.
This is a blessing since the password for the user was forgotten. But a
curse since this could be used to gain access to sensitive files on the
windows partition.
