Wha?
Disable?
and.. go directly to the desktop?
Autologon....
Get TweakUI installed and use Automatic logon setting - you get to type in
your password.
(or set the registry values or...)
Are you the only user?
Automatic Logons:

Microsoft method:

(Essentially the same... but different place:

Microsoft Method 2:
TweakUI from:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx
control userpasswords2 method:
1) Go to the Start Menu and the Run box.
2) Type in the following:
control userpasswords2
now click OK
3) 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.
4) Hit Apply and a dialog box will appear asking you to confirm the selected
users password.
Click OK when you are done...

Hopefully that gets you where you are wanting to be.
It is a *good* thing in the user arena to:
1) Have strong passwords.
2) Have more than one administrator level account (with strong passwords).
