    I can't seem to figure out how to auto login on startup when using XP pro. We could do this when we were using W2K and it was really handy. You see we use goback and have it revert every nite. Thanks in advance for any help!

    ummm if your talking about auto login from the welcome screen, the Powertoys software (specifically TweakUI) let me accomplish that goal. They have the software downloadable off the main site...

    I found the correct answer. Its start->run->control userpasswords2 (that is a space after control) and uncheck the box for "user must enter a password to use this computer ". Then apply and follow the promps. Thanks for your help! I hope this helps someone else.
