Store User Names and Passwords

F

FM

In a shared computer using a generic user name, when one
user is accessing a restricted resource, he/she is asked
for a username and password. If this user checks the
box "Store user name and password", all the other users
that share the computer will have access to that resource.

According to Microsoft Technet, this option can be
disabled by using a Group Policy Object for that generic
user and disabling the "Store User Names and Passwords"
policy.

I cannot find that policy anywhere. Does anybody know
where the "Store User Name and Pasword" policy is or the
registry entry that corresponds to it in XP pro?

Thanks for your help,
Francisco
