Windows XP Scheduled Tasks?

Just got a NAS tonite and I downloaded MS SyncToy. It's a cool little program that lets me backup data to the NAS.

Anyway, I was reading in the help for the appl. and apparently you have to go to the Scheduled Programs in XP and set this up to run daily, weekly, whatever. Ok, so I follow thru the setup, and it's asking me to enter in a username and password. I have no idea what to put as I don't sign onto my computer with any login info. I try various combo's of usernames and passwords (even blank) and I can never get the scheduled program to run.

Has anyone ever run into this? How do I get around it? I just want a silly program to run weekly on my PC. I have no idea why I'm messing with usernames and passwords.

Thanks!

have a look under c:\documents and settings and what is the account in there. I would expect to see Administrator then this will be the account that you use and if you have no password leave it blank.
