Installed .NET framework; now have to select account when booting

Ever since installing .NET framework, I now have to select my account when
booting XP.

My account is the only one that appears on the start screen. It seems silly
to have to select my account when I'm the only one who has an account on the
system.

However, under Control Panel>User Accounts, there are three listed: the one
under my name (the same one that appears on the startup screen, that has to
be elected), as well as "Guest" (and it says "Guest account is off") and an
account called "ASP.NET MACHINE A...".

Is it safe to delete the ASP.NET MACHINE A... account? If not, how can I
automatically boot as I used to?

Many thanks,
Josh
 
Click on Start, Run... and type: control userpasswords2

Then uncheck "Users must enter a username and password to use this
computer.", click OK, and indicate the default user to use.
