easy, find all *.pwl files, delete them all, then restart when you are prompted for a password dont put anything and just press enter. and presto no more password.

get a proggie called tweakui. I think you can get it through Microsoft, actually. It automatically inserts a password for you at a prompt. Works nicely here

choose windows logon instead of client for m/s network in your network settings under the control panel. and make sure you did not specify any password before (you pressed enter everytime windows asked you for a password). if you did, i think you have to remove it from your password file first.

I would do both... delete all the *.pwl files and change the Primary Network Logon from Client for Microsoft Networks to Windows Logon. When you reboot after deleting all the PWL files make sure you don't have anything in the password fields and just hit enter when it asks you for a password. Good luck.
