I chose the wrong option when installing Windows XP Pro.
It was the "Always logon as Administrator" choice instead
of telling XP to ask for a username and password. How do
I change this?
 
Greetings:

Start Button\Gpedit.msc\Machine Configuration\Windows Configuration\Security
Configuration\Local Directives\Security Options..

I believe it's someting like:
Recuperation Console: allow automatic logon as administrator
(you'll know when you see it)

Hope this helps.

Try this:
Start\Run\control userpasswords2\accept\in users tab check on users must
write their name and password to use the computer.

By what I read, I understand you only have the deafult administrator account
(owner), right?

You should created other user accounts of which there are:
Administrators
Standar users
users
limited users

To make your use of the computer more efficient, safe and practical, you
need to have at least three types of accounts even if you are the only one
using your computer

.. The limited user accounts are used to avoid accidental or intentional
changes to the system and to make surfing the internet safer.

.. The advanced user accounts have some administrative rights with some
restrictions and to go on the internet.

.. The administrative user account is to make changes to the system, like
installing software, creating user accounts, etc.

.. The default administrator account is to make changes where the
administrative user account does not have total control of the system.

Creating a user account:
Start\Run\control userpasswords2\accept\in users tab check on users must
write their name and password to use the computer\add\write computer user
name and your full name\next\password, repeat password, next\check others:
select user group(administrators)\end.

Create another account and select standard or advanced users
(for safe surfing the Internet).


Hope this helps.
