BlazeFind Malware: Cannot use Recovery Console

[Dougall999]

My friend is suffering from the BlazeFind Malware problem where you log into the computer and it logs straight back out again. I have read this thread which contains really usedful informarion (thread779-924408).

However when accessing Recovery Console via the XP Pro CD, we cannot get passed the admin password. We are using the password for his profile and he thinks he was an administrator but no way to be sure, leaving it blank does not work either and he has no other passwords. i don't think it would make any difference but its a Sony Vaio notebook.

He has recovery disks but he would lose his data if we used them. Any ideas on how the data could be saved?
