Default Recover Identity Password OR Delete Identity

One of my kids put a password on their IE6 identity. I've searched the
knowledge base and it appears that you cannot recover or override these
passwords - Is this true?

If not, how can I delete the identity? When I try to delete it, I'm
still prompted for the password?

Thanks, Bryan

Default Recover Identity Password OR Delete Identity

For the logon password:

Your ISP should be able to tell you, or see this site for a tool to retrieve
your e-mail account password:

For an identity password:
