The logon thing in 9.x will keep coming back.  There is a registry hack that 
disables it, but it gets overwritten sometimes when you do certain updates.  
If you don't need to share files through a network, you can eliminate those 
protocols from your network settings and the clients and it won't come back.  
I have a 98 machine here that I can look at to refresh my memory, but ME may 
be different.  I avoided ME because it looked like fancy 98 to me.
