Admin logs in on startup w/o password ??

[BOB]

I recently did a clean install of XP Pro. I have 3 user accounts with
passwords plus the admin. Whenever I start ths pc, it comes up logged in as
the admin, doesn't even ask for password. I log off as admin, then the
regular logon screen comes up..\ How do I correct this ??

Log in as Admin and go to control panel > User accounts> and click on
"change the way users log off/log on. Uncheck the welcome screen and the
fast user switching and click Apply Settings. Then reboot. Should prompt
everytime on boot up.

BOB,

Click Start, and then click Run. In the Open box, type control
userpasswords2, and then click OK. In the dialog box that appears, enable
Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer check box,
and then click OK.
