Two XP problems

Hi,

I have two hopefully minor problems as follows:

1: The task bar has changed to a grey/buff colour and i can't change it
back. This happened after I had started in safe mode and then changed back
to normal windows mode. Not a big hassle, just annoying.

2: Around the same time, when I now open any programs, XP asks me "Which
User account do you want to use to run this program?"

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Steve

I did leave out a step you need to take to accomplish this.
Start > Control Panel > User Accounts

Select "Change the way users log on or off"

Make sure the "Welcome Screen" option is checked

Click "Apply Options"

The settings will take effect when you log off.


The "Log On" option also changes the way "Ctrl Alt Del" works...

Under the "Welcome Screen" option you are taken into the "Task Manager"
dialog box.

I hope this helped!

Pete, MCP
 
I gave this a go but no joy.
Guess I will just have to keep looking.

Thanks again.
