How is this relevant to Checkpoint??  This sounds like an NT admin security
question, better posted to

news://comp.os.ms-windows.nt.admin.security

Most likely he is using L0phtCrack from
http://www.l0pht.com/

If you don't have real strong passwords, like:
As5d@(f4&3!>

for example.  it is very easy to break Windows NT passwords, and you can brute force
any NT password at all in about a week on a modern PIII computer.

If you are really concerned with security *at all* I would dump NT in a real hurry
as it is notorious for this sort of thing.

Cheers,
John
