XP Home, Disabling Loggin Screen

I want to disable the loggin screen, since I am the only user on my computer.
I have searched the KB, but there is only a way to do this with the
professional version.

Is there a way that I can override this behavior, like with ME using the
Windows Logon option?

Regards,

Brad

Here is the info from Kelly

1. Go to Start/Run and type in: control userpasswords2 and press ok.

2. On the Users tab, left click your user name then uncheck the box that
Users
Must Enter A User Name And Password To Use This Computer.

Tip:

Add Control UserPasswords2 to the Control Panel (Line 1)

First in User Accounts, select 'Change way users logon' and select 'Use
Welcome screen.

Then Start - Run the line
control userpasswords2
Uncheck the box 'Users must give a username' and click Apply. Enter the
username and password to be assumed
