I had always been using the administrator account since setup of my winxp pro.
I decided to add another user for remote desktop usage.
I just added a user and now the administrator user is no longer available for me to log into at login. I can't access the stuff I had under that user from this new user account. I am really afraid that I may have lost a great deal as my bookmarks and such are not accessible any longer.

Can anyone tell me how I can get my administrator account back? I can't even delete this new user account.

Thanks so much in advance.
 
Ok, I found a thread about how to access it.
Now the question is, can you remote into an admin account or do you need a new account for that?
