After removing virus infected files by delete and quarantine I rebooted. When the computer came back on there was a WindowsXP Login window with my name as user and asked for a password. I tried every password I knew to use and can't get into XP. Is there a master password or can anybody help. Thanks.
 
Have you tried entering without a password?

pirates how to bypass passwords....
 
There is not a 'backdoor' to get in. Check the below links for more
