Got a brand new XP machine at home, and currently do not have any login
passwords set on my usual user account. I'm not using Administrator,
but I set up another one that is an admin. The machine automatically
logs in with my user account, and all I see in the CP is that one and
guest. Actually I don't see Administrator anywhere, which I don't quite
understand--do I have to do something to enable that? I get no welcome
screen, either, even tho that is checked in the user account dialog. Is
this because there's only one user account?
I only have the one machine, which is not networked, and don't have any
kids at home, anything like that, although I am on DSL, but very well
protected with ZoneAlarm Security Suite etc etc. Question is, do I
really need to set a login password on my user account? Or on
Administrator for that matter? I'm not against doing it, I'm just
wondering if I need to with my particular setup.
TIA
