ask me for a password and username. I don't even know how it got on there.I
tried doing what Larry Samuels suggested but it did not work.Is there another
way I can get rid of this. Please help me.
 
.. 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.

rajkohli, helping others is what it really is about, I don't consider myself
any better than anyone else. If you want to help others, I definitely
encourage you to do so.
