Auto login - how to stop it!

[Jim]

I have recently upgraded to XP pro from 2000 pro.
I was the only user on 2000 so it logged in straight to
my settings. I now have set up 5 users on XP inc myself,
but when switched on it still logs straight in to my user
without going to the welcome screen! This is important to
me as I have children using the PC and do not want them
having full administrator access to PC or internet.

Hi Jim,

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

Check the box requiring a username and password, click apply/ok.
