Remove Access Protection

Hi,
i've a mdb access file and i launched
Tools->Protection->SettingAutomaticProtection (sorry if translation
isn't fine but the language in my PC is not english :-( ) two weeks ago
..
In other words i've automatically set protection in DB.
Now access created a "protection.mdw" in which are stored groups and
users.
I have administrator account and now i'd like to remove all
protection...
How can i remove it?

I hope i explained well my problem instead of my bad english...

log in to your administrator account, then go to the user accounts and
delete the adminstrator password
