Hello

I use xp sp2 home. On returning to the pc after being in a standby mode I
am asked to type in the password.

I have not created a password for my 'Owner Account' so I cannot understand
why it asking for one. Any help in removing this password window. Thank
you.

Along with checking the Screen Saver tab in Display Properties,
do the following:
Go to Start -> Control Panel and double click Power Options.
Click on the Advanced tab.
Remove the check mark next to "Prompt for password when
computer resumes from standby".
Click OK.

Good luck
