Hi List. An old favourite here. How do I get rid of the Log-in screen each time XP starts up? I've tried the "Control userpasswords2" remedy and unchecked the requirement for users to log-in, but its still happening. And I fear I've done something wrong at this point as I've now got a further pop up screen on each start-up. There's now a message saying something to the effect that I can't be logged in because of an account restriction, as well as the original log-in problem. Hitting the OK button clears this though. Googling seems to suggest that this is related to a blank field in the password section, but I don't seem able to put this right either. Again, any and all help gratefully received. Darran
