    You will need to delete the WordPress installation OR access the database to change the passwords. Here's a link to recovering the password for WordPress.

    many thanks for your reply but i managed to overcome it by deleting the file that he created(in my root directory) using wordpress. I have now gone back to using the very poor web creation page supplied by one.com. HO HUM!!!!!
    Once again thanks for your help

    Hi trevor,

    No worries! You may want to look at using WordPress. While there's a small learning curve involved, it's a great content management system to learn.

    Best wishes!
