I've recently had to switch computers, and am now using XP Pro, rather than Home. The thing I like about being the only user of a PC is not having to set a password; I can hit the on button, walk away, and by the time I get back, the desktop is up and everything is running. I don't have to enter a password to allow XP to start loading all of its crap.
However, even as the sole user of this XP Pro computer, and with no password on my username, and the Welcome Screen option off, it STILL asks for the 'admin' username and password. So I still have to come back to the desk to tap it in. It's really annoying.
Is there anyway to tell XP Pro not to ask for any kind of password? Even the admin one?

Pete.
