XP sign-on

[Guest]

How do I configure XP Home to bypass the sign-on/password window? I have
tried every option in User Accounts and have had no positive results. I have
selected no password, but the box still comes up and I have to select "OK" to
continue to the desktop.
I know this can be done, my other computer with XP Home is set up to skip
the password dialogue box altogether. Once the Welcome screen closes, my
desktop comes up immediately. I want to be able to do the same with this new
computer. Does anyone really know how to do this??

Auto Logon (TweakUI) would do this automatically, avoiding the manual logon,
but not skipping it.
