network account to what? What network? Who's Network? What type of network? Where is this network located?

Do you understand how big network is? The whole world is considered to be one whole network made up of many networks.

Please define your question.

Do you mean your wireless network? If so then the only way around that is to reset the wireless router to factory defaults. Nobody else is going to know what the password is unless you've told them.
