Depending on you needs, you can write up a quick one in ASP.NET or
VBScript.
Shouldn't be much more then 20 to 30 lines of code.

AFAIK, the correct (M$ way) to do it, is through the AD services
interface (ADSI).
I saw a simple example in the technet, sometime ago.
When making the correct calls to the ADSI, you can efectivelly change
the user's password, as long as the script is executed in the
Enterprise/domain admin security context.
However AFAIK,you cannot read the password (not even it's hash). ADSI
has specific procedures for user authentication in AD.

Hello All,

This may be a little bit off-topic...  ;-)

Is anyone aware of a good web based utility that will allow users from

several domains to change their Active Directory password securely?

I tried IISADMPWD from http://support.microsoft.com/?id=555071 , but 
it is very flaky and does not work most of the time.
