Hello,

I recently did a restore on my pc, windows xp home edition installed,
downloaded all the security patches and sp2 and without me apparantly
changing anything or switching the option on, when I turn my pc on and
windows start to loads I now have to click on my small picture (user account
I think) to open windows. I've never had to do this before but have no idea
why it has come on.

Perhaps someone knows how to turn this off so when I switch I can go
straight into windows without having to press any buttons.

Thanks

Use the second method near the end of the article - "control
