Password?

[Paul]

On April 1st my computer asked me for a log in password.
I have never set a password and have never been asked for
one before.
I'm now locked out of my pc.

Have I been virused?

Any suggestions on how I fix this?

Paul;

It may be a virus, I don't know.
Are you sure you're locked out?
Did you try leaving the password box blank??? And hit Enter??

[[After downloading fixes from Microsoft Windows Update page or via
Automatic Updates, you may notice Welcome Screen appearing at startup
[previously it used to go to Desktop directly]. This is caused by the .NET
Framework Update from Microsoft. It creates an additional user account
called ASP.NET, which you can see in the Control Panel > User Accounts
applet. This is the reason you are seeing the Welcome Screen at startup.
But, don't need to remove this update or don't delete this account. You can
still configure Windows XP to automatically login using these methods:]]
