I installed this on my computer and it rearranged my startup to require
me to logon each time I start up. I normally start my computer in a
single user mode and do not have to logon. Is hhere any way of keeping
the .net framework and also keeping my single user startup

The account it adds is called ASP.NET Machine. It is in User Accounts
in Control Panel, and it IS SAFE to delete.

Log into your normal account, open User Accounts and delete the ASP.NET
Machine account.
 
I's a common problem. You need run (Start>Run) control userpasswords2,
uncheck "Users must enter username...", and when it asks for a password,
replace Administrator with account you want to log in at startup.

Others have already explained how you could do that, but why do you want to
anyway?

Are you absolutely certain that no one could ever get unauthorised access
to your machine in your absence and do heaven knows what *as you* ?

It's called security, you should think about it seriously.

Cheers,

IMO rather than forcing everybody who uses Windows to log on every time
they start their computer, MS should simply make it so that a password
is asked for whenever a change requiring administrator mode is called for.

Having to "log on" to a non-networked personal computer is idiocy.

That would be even more cumbersome than a logon for a single user of a
computer. It would pop up every time I install or uninstall something, or
change some preference...

Agreed.

If by that you mean with no available working Internet connection, then I'd
agree. Once you connect to the Internet you *are* networked.

Then how about making it a choice (option) to either log in every time
you start your computer OR to use a password whenever a change requiring
administrator mode is called for. I don't know, because I don't have to
do either. I use ME and don't have dotnet installed.
Agreed.

You wouldn't have to do that if your Network settings are done
properly. You should disable services and only have TCP/IP bound
to all adapters. Far more secure this way as well.

Art, I don't log on as it is right now. I'm using ME without dotnet. No
other users.

*GROAN* I knew somebody would pop up with this one. Roy, that's a very
old argument that doesn't hold water, true or not. I am perfectly aware
that the internet is a network of networks. However, what possible
purpose can my having to "log on" to the internet serve unless I'm on a
dialup? And in that case, you're not "logging on" to *your computer*,
you're logging on to your ISP and only when you want to be online.

HOWEVER, since I have a cable connection currently, that's not an issue
either (except when I initialize my cable modem router maybe, and that's
done by the router automatically.)

I still say that logging on to a single user, one user account personal
computer that's not on a network (say, _other than the internet_) is
idiocy and serves no purpose.

Does that make it clear enough for you?

===================================

No Log-in option in XP
Not everyone needs to log in to use a PC. If you feel that a login is
unnecessary for the application or setting that you use an XP PC in,
you can set XP to require a username and password. Go to Start -> Run
-> "control userpasswords2" and press enter. Uncheck the box that reads
"Users must enter..." and press "OK." Say goodbye to user names and
passwords.

XP
Start > Control Panel > Network Connections, right click on your ISP &
select Properties.

Click on Networking & all you need in this Window is Dial-Up-Adaptor &
TCP/IP.
Delete the others.
Ignore the warning message about not being complete. That's OK.
