AS promised here is the code for systematically resetting passwords.
source: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/251394
From the domain controller open the command line and type: net user [username] [password] /DOMAIN
My username is: rfasenmyer
For example to reset my password I would type: net user rfasenmyer mylamepassword /DOMAIN
Following this format we create a spreadsheet with the usernames and passwords. From there we build a string for each row of the spreadsheet that recreates the above command. The formula is:
="net user " & [username cell] & " " & [password cell] & " /DOMAIN"
Then use the fill handle to populate all the other rows of the spreadsheet.
We then copy the the generated commands to a text file and rename it to a .bat (batch file) then run the batch file.
Keep an eye on the command line for any errors.
Good Luck,
Ryan

what version of windows are you using? You can explicitely tell programs to run in a mode that emulates pervious versions of windows.
Tux Paint (tuxpaint.com) is an open source (free) drawing program very similar to KidPix. I just started using it and the kids love it! You have to download andinstall it, but it is an easy process.
