When the computer starts up, I would like it to automatically logon as a
certain user but then to immediately lock itself.

This is because I want services set to automatic (and programs in the
startup folder) to begin anytime the machine boots up, but I do not want it
to be truly logged in.

Any way to do this?

Thanks!
 
Ah, that did it.
Thanks a lot!

Once this user account is logged in create a shorcut with the following in its target path.

C:\WINNT\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation

Place this file in the AutoLogon users profile in there Start
Click to expand...
Menu\Programs\Startup folder. This will lock the workstation after logging
in the user.
