I'm setting up a home pc w/win xp pro and don't want to have to log in every time to use it. Is there a way to take that option off? I know there is in win2k but can't find it in xp pro. help anyone?

1. Click Start on the Windows taskbar, and then click Run.
2. In the Open box, type "control userpasswords2" (without quotes), and then click OK.
3. In the dialog box that appears,
You'll see: "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer" check box.
Enabled will require users to logon, disabling will make XP automatically logon to the Administrator account.

Taken from TweakXP. That site is great if you want to apply some tweaks. But downloading TweakUI will make it much easier because you can tweak the interface all through one program. Download it here. Hope this helps.

Oh yea, welcome! :)
