Hi Rocky, I can confirm that Win XP Pro auto log on does work on my system. I used Tweak Ui to set the auto log on feature. I had a problem that would not allow a user to auto log on to a Win Me system and found a solution here: http://www.wown.com/j_helmig/nologon.htm and the Microsoft article Q141848 according to the article this does not apply to XP but ya never know. Worth a look.
