Default Have to login when in standby mode

Greetings,

when I want to enter my computer I have to click on my name to login (I am
the only one using this system).

Is there anyway of turning this off? so I don't have to click on my name in
the welcome screen, I know I could do it before, but it's changed now.

I am running Win Xp Pro update

Hi ... Do the following
AUTO LOG IN

You can use the following steps to enable automatic logon:

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