Annoying Startup??

[Pete Rynas]

how do i get back to my original winXP pro startup that does not show my
name and asks for a password , the same after it wakes from a sleep- i don't
need the security!! just want to turn the comp on and go to work etc without
all the password user stuff - i'm the only user thank you

Start/Run
Type "control userpasswords2" ENTER
Uncheck "Users must enter..."
Click OK and follow prompts.
