I forgot my Screen Saver Password

Have you ever forgotten your screen saver password, not being able to return to "normal operation" in Windows 9x? Well, there is a way to completely delete the screen saver password, allowing you to get your system back. Fire up Regedit and go to:
HKEY_USERS\.Default\Control Panel\desktop

In the right hand pane look for the "ScreenSave_Data" String value.
Highlight it and hit the Delete key.
