Husband died. He was administrator of computer system running on Windows Xp. Everyone else had limited acess. We need to get his password. Any ideas?

You have two choices here: either try a password cracking program and hope to get lucky in a reasonable amount of time (anywhere from a few seconds to years depending on the strength of the password used), or reset the administrator password to something you know. Other than password cracking you really can't "retrieve" the password of an account on a system. There are utilities to reset the password (especially on XP systems) and they work really well. You obviously need physical access to the machine to do this. Run a Google search for XP password reset or something like that and you will be directed to sites that have this utility.

From the crime scenes and nature of the murders it is very unlikely that the Ripper had any help. The majority of serial killers work alone, the Ripper was almost certainly alone in his crimes.
