Dude, my mom is pissing me off. She changes her password every day (which she never did on her Windows box). Now she set it as something she can't remember.
I've tried booting from the restore CD because it has a setting to change forgotten passwords, but it doesn't want to boot from it.

I have an Apple iMac running MacOS X Leopard, and a wireless keyboard and mouse, both apple brand.

I need some help!

OMG WHY!!!

Why don't you have your own password?

Maybe I wasn't really specific. I do have my own user and password, but I'm not an admin, so I can't delete accounts, change others' passwords, etc.

Restart Mac and hold down C key on keyboard to boot from Leopard DVD or hold down Option key and you'll get the boot menu with all the choices on your machine.
