Password

[annonymous]

My PC (OS Win.XPPro) is still warning me on bootup that my Password will
expire in one day and do I want to change it, although I firstly changed the
Passwordonce and I was still having this warning, so I removed the
Passwordaltogether, but I still get the same notice!
How do I get rid off this message and what will happen in one day - will I
lose access to my PC completely?

No you won't lose access to your PC.
