Default Delete Need For Password

Good Evening:

XP

I am the only person using this computer and therefore do not need a
password.

Could anyone tell me to how to bypass the Password Screen.

Thanks

Control Panel - User Accounts - User - Remove my password.

But I guess removing password is NOT the best idea. Somebody can logon in
your absence.

Enagle auto logon
.. Go to the Start Menu and the Run box.
.. Type in the following:
control userpasswords2
.. now click OK
.. In the new Windows that appears select the account
you wish to make the primary logon.
.. Now uncheck the "Users must enter a username and
password..." box.
.. Hit Apply and a dialog box will appear asking you
to confirm the selected users password.

Click OK.
The changes will work the next time you restart your
computer.

Go to Start - Run and run
control userpasswords2
In that uncheck the box 'users must enter a password', and on Apply
select yourself and whatever the password is as the one to use
