Rick!
I'm so sorry for your problems, but I think you misread the directions and went to Passwords instead of Networks!
-Go to START to CONTROL PANEL to NETWORK
-Select the CONFIGURATION tab.
-Highlight "Client for Microsoft Networks"
-Click on "Properties"
-Go to "Network Logon Options"
-Select "Quick Logon"
-Click OK
-Go to the "Primary Network Logon" box,
-Make sure "Windows Logon" is selected.
(If you get a message telling you that you're installing an
older version, do you want to go ahead -- say YES!)
-Restart your computer.
-IF the log-on window comes up (it didn't on mine):
-Enter a name, (any name it doesn't matter),
-Leave the password blank, and hit return.
-When it asks you to confirm that blank password, hit return again.
-After that, you should never see the log-on screen again.
Now you see why I need very explicit baby steps when I deal with my computer. I still haven't recovered after trying to defrag my hard drive last year. It stalled in the middle of the operation, so I just hit "ALT, CONTROL, DELETE!" Yep, it deleted everything! <ARGHHHHHHH> I do nothing now without very explicit instructions! <g>
Sure hope everything is back to normal on your system!
