Poll: Do you ever log on with the Admin/Root account?
In this week's TR Dojo episode, I show you how to unlock the hidden Administrator account on Windows 7 and Vista with the Computer Management console and Net User command.

While it's generally not a good idea to use a true admin/root account for day-to-day computing, there are times when it makes things easier. Do you ever log in as the local admin? Take the poll in the post above and let me know.
