Hi,

Is there a way to configure a user account so it does not appear on Welcome
screen? I have an account for ftp access only and I do want it to show up
on the Welcome screen (similar to - for example - ASPNET account).

Thanks,
Dan

Hi Dan,

and look for, "Hide Users from the Welcome Screen"

If you do not want to play in the registry, download the Powertoy fot
XP TweakUI. Inside the "Logon" section, you can hide the user
accounts.
