    if you can get your hands on <SNIP> or one of the other emergency PXE boot disks, most of them have an app that allows you to reset a logon password and it will also allow you to create a new admin account, this logon would let you recreate your user account, unless you also deleted the entire user folder most of your data will still be recoverable,

    They also have a registry roll-back feature which I have found very handy although it may not bring back a deleted account

    Password resets are OK, password crackz are not because people reuse passwords elsewhere.
