.NET framework version 1.1

I just installed the new update and now my computer will
start and go directly to my desktop. It now brings up a
screen that says Owner and I have to click on the icon to
get to the desktop. How can I get my computer back to
going directly to my desktop??

Go into Control Panel -> User Accounts. Then click the option for "Change
the way users log on and off" and uncheck Welcome Screen.

Go Start|Run type in "control userpasswords2" (without the quotes) and hit
Enter. Highlight your User name in the list and uncheck the box which states
"Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Now your
computer should boot straight into Windows as it did before this update :-)

I just wanted to thank you for you simple and easy fix to
my problem. I had been all over microsofts web site and
could'nt find a darn thing. Again thanx for the help.
