(1) Fair enough, I suppose some keychains might make it difficult to recover the password.

(2) Why not just ask the other employees for the old password?

(1) Right -- and, even if it is possible to recover the password, walking a non-tech-savvy customer through the process may not be a palatable option, either for Support or for the customer.

(2) I wish I knew. Not really our place to ask, though.
