I installed AOL firewall and had to uninstall Microsoft firewall. When I
restarted WindowsXP, it asked me for my user name and password. I never
created a password. I've tried restart & cold start. How do I open my
computer?
 
You should be able to start up in safe mode and login under Admin and reset
or delete that password you were talking about...I have never heard of AOL
doing this before try that.

Perhaps AOL's software needed (and installed) an older version of .Net
1.1. Going to Windows Update and updating .Net should fix that for you.
Since you never created a password, just press "Enter" at the login
screen.
