HELP! I can't go to my desktop, much less get online
I kept losing my connection on my WiFi laptop, so I tried repairing
the connection by right clicking the icon. Now when I start my pc it presents me with a place to type a password-and I never have set a password to get into my computer. How do I avoid this because it is my computer and I'd like to use it. My system is Windows XP, IE8.-Thank nYou for your help, I'm typing this on someone elses computer. James Moore |

In the run window type "control userpasswords2" (without the quotes) and clear the checkmark next to the line that says "Users must enter a username and password to use this computer." Next click th OK button and enter the user account and password (if used, otherwise leave blank) that you want to log in with automatically. -- Roy Smith Windows XP Pro SP3 |

James Moore- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Thanks men, for your help, I used both of your instructions, but t still gives me a place for my username and password- but I hit enter and get rid of it. It still doesn't give me the box where I can click to logoff-shutdown-restart, so I tried getting that back with system restore- I've tried system restore twice tonight-and it seems like system restore just dosn't work now. So I don't know what to do there. James |

All you had to do was Put no Password in the box and push OK and no password would been set. You kept losing your connection on your laptop and you tried repairing. in doing so you set up Networking for windows it set a Password so to keep Us out the back door. you open a Network door mm So put a password in for now just ot keep us out For did not repair the connection on your laptop. Just F*C* UP your Security. "Larry" wrote in message ... I kept losing my connection on my WiFi laptop, so I tried repairing the connection by right clicking the icon.
