While I've not yet experienced the SendTo problem this was originally about,
I may be able to shed some light on logging on using the "hidden Administrator"
account.  This is done in much the same way as under Windows NT 4.0, i.e.,
press ctrl+alt+del.  I usually have to do this twice to produce an old, NT-like
login dialog.  If, upon installation, the Administrator account was not renamed,
entering the original installation password (or lack thereof, depending) will
log you on as Administrator.

HTH,
