Default Please explain accounts in XP

Someone once tried to explain to me how many accounts get set up with
a fresh install, but considering it's only me who uses the PC do I
need all these accounts (admin etc) can I just not set pc up with me
and no need for password so I just go into desktop, I know some
people will say it's not safe but it's my home PC so nobody else uses
it.


Hi, Jim;

Check out http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=282866 for how to remove your
password and enable XP to log you in automatically.

As for the other accounts, I'm guessing you mean the ~4 others listed in the
Computer Management, Local Users screen. Probably best to leave those as
they are (be sure to leave Guest disabled).
