Not if I'm reading this correctly Darwin. What it appears to be saying is that Nick mistyped his password in however many times it allows and then locked his account.

His computer has shifted its setting like they do from time to time. He needs to reset the bloody thing.

The Nick kiss of death is also quite plausible.
