Ok I have win xpsp2 and everytime I bootup my pc the log on screen appears
yet I have it set to not appear.

This is what I have tried:
User Accouts>Choose change the way users log on or off> choose nothing for
both boxes. Saved and rebooted. Poof it appears again. I know there is a way
to disable this somehow since I have it set on one of my pc's but can't
recall how to do this... If anyone can refreash me on this it'd be great.

Waiting for an answer,
The wondering cat!

The free power tool from MS-- TweakUI --has a function that is supposed to
do this. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
