auto login every time?

[djc]

how can I make XP Pro automatically login as a user of my choice and go
right to the desktop everytime the computer boots? I always use passwords,
strong passwords, but I have gotten this request before. I always reccomend
against it but if a client wants it then I need to make it happen for them.
So, I spend a lot of time studying making things secure. How do I make them
unsecure?

thanks

Tweakui would do it quite nicely. Check Google for download sites.

Start, Run and enter CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2

In the list of users, select the user that you want logged on automatically. Uncheck Users must enter a username and password.......... Click Apply. In the next dialog, enter the password for the account you selected, if any.
