Windows XP Operating System Help

I share my home computer with several others, so I created several user accounts. When I turn my computer on, it automatically skips the welcome page and loads the administrators account. By the way, I am not in safe mode. This is not a huge problem, it's just very very 😕annoying. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
 
When the computer boots up and you get to the desktop go to start, run, type in "control userpasswords" (without quotes), you should get a user accounts screen check mark the box that says users must enter a username and password to use this computer. Click ok and reboot, when it reboots it should take to you the login screen.
 
I chekced for viruses and spyware, and I have several anti-spyware programs so I don't think that is the problem. Under the user names "change the way users log on or off", I check marked the "Use Welcome Screen" and "Use Fast User Switching". Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

See my original post. Have you tried that yet?
 
Thanks a lot for your help. By the way pikachu I tried your command but it gave me a different window than the one you were explaining which is actually userpasswords2 according guild. But, thanks for your help, you fixed my problem.🙂
