LUA question

I need an "LUA for Dummies" type of resource. Like a lot of people I have
been meaning to setup a LUA log-on system on my XP Home PC for awhile now.
This weekend I decided to devote a few hours to it so it would be up and
running on Monday.

It turns out those hours were spent searching through article after article
that told ABOUT using LUA --never did find anything that told me
step-by-step start-to-finish how to set it up and run it, including possible
problems and their solutions.

I have taken journeys before with this type of thing that ended up
problematic with resulting down-time I cannot afford. Since I am the only
owner/user of my PC I have had no prior experience configuring user accounts
except for needing to fix changes caused by the installation of .NET
Framework --luckily that was straightforward and simple. I have no access to
any meaningful support when things go wrong, I simply cannot work until I
can fix it myself.

Given that, does anyone know of a place I can get a stepwise, basic,
comprehensive HOW-TO, explaining the mechanics of setting up and running on
LUA? I'm sure it is out there and I simply missed over it.

Thanks, Pflu
 
Thanks. Sorry, but I was referring to the Limited User Account (Least
Privileged) setup you do with XP so as to browse the web or email logged on
as other than Administrator.
