Reset Live@Edu passwords with a simple Windows Form

Once again, I’ve gone what seems like ages without taking the time to share.  We’ve been so busy with implementing Microsoft’s Live@Edu service as well as piloting VMWare’s View I just haven’t taken the time.  In any case, here’s a little form I put together in Primalforms that connects to Live@Edu, and allows you to search for your students and change their passwords easily.  You can embed credentials, but by default the script will prompt for credentials each time the script is run.  The code is below, I think I've decided to go with poshcode.org for pasting code and what not.
