secure login

[peter]

I have XP and am trying to set up the secure login, where you must hit
ctrl alt del before logging in. Windows help says to go to
"users/advanced", but I don't see "advanced" anywhere. Can anyone
help?

Thanks,

Peter

You could try going into Control Panel/user accounts, select change the way
users logon and make sure that both use the welcome screen and use fast user
switching are unchecked. If that does not work and you are using XP Pro go
use secpol.msc to open Local Security Policy and go to security
settings/local policies/security settings and find the setting for
interactive logon: Do not require CTRL-ALT-DEL and set it to disabled. ---

Hey Steven,

The method using secpol.msc worked!

Thanks!
