The Forgot Password Web Part displays a textbox for a shopper to enter his or her user name. After the system confirms that the shopper's user name exists, the system displays the shopper's security question and a textbox for the shopper to enter his or her security question answer. After the shopper has successfully answered his or her security question, the system sends an auto-generated e-mail to the address the shopper used to register. An account that has its password reset is placed in a restricted security group allowing them only to access the Change Password Web Part.
