Can I setup my computer to boot into XP (sp2) without receiving a prompt for
a username and password? Can I setup a user and have the computer auto login
for that user?

Start | Run, type "control userpasswords2" Select the account you want
to logon to automatically. Then uncheck the box "Users must enter a
user name and password to use this computer."

Or do the same thing with TweakUI.
