All,
When XP (home edition) loads, I wish to arrange it so that:
- autologin of the ADMIN account
- boot of 3-4 programs

I wish to keep my webcam going in my apartment while I am out of town.

Suggestions?
 
Hi David,

Start/run "control userpasswords2" (without the quotes).

Uncheck the box requiring a username and password, click apply/ok and follow
the prompts to set up a default logon to your preferred profile (doesn't
need to be the administrator).

Place shortcuts to the desired programs in this folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Best of Luck,
