Windows 7 locking out your account?

Is your Windows 7 box locking out your accounts? Have you recently changed any of your passwords? Credential Manager could be the culprit. Just type Credential Manager from the start menu and select it. Make sure to clear out any stored credentials or update your passwords. If you check your system event logs you should see the following warning...
