I wrote this powershell to mass change passwords, set-aduser should change to new-aduser pretty directly.  logins.txt 
is just a username,password CSV file (with username,password as the header)

$inputfile = ".\logins.txt"

$data = import-csv $inputfile

foreach ($user in $data) {
        $pass = ConvertTo-SecureString $user.password -AsPlainText –Force
        $user = $user.username
        write-host creating $user
        set-aduser -identity $user -AccountPassword $pass -CannotChangePassword $true -PasswordNeverExpires $true
}
