I use XP PRO at home and the Windows does an automatic login when started
using the administrator acount, I changed the name and the password of the
administrator acount and Windows tries to login without using password so
everytime I turn on the computer I have to wait the Windows attempt to log in.
Somebody told me that this problem can be fixed with some configuration,
does anybody know that configuration?

Click Start / Run / control userpasswords2, then click the
new user name and tick the box that requires users to
enter a password.

If I recall, after automatic logon, just going to start->logoff might
give you the opportunity to go the the logon screen then ctrl+alt+del
to get to administrator?
