Log In Password

I am sure this is an easy problem to fix but I can't find any solution in the Windows help pages. I have Windows 98 and when I turn on my computer it askes for a password. I have never set anything so I just click OK and the computer loads up as normal. Is there a way to get rid of this password request screen. I have looked at the password options in the Control Panel and there is nothing there. Thanks for any suggestions.

Windows 95/98/Me (If you don't have multiple users configured):
Open Control Panel, and double-click on the Network icon.
From the list entitled Primary Network Logon:, choose Windows Logon, and press OK.

Note: If this doesn't work, make sure you didn't initially configure a password for yourself. If you did, Windows 98 will always require it. Double-click on the Passwords icon in Control Panel to choose nothing (leave it blank) for your password.

Windows 95/98/Me (If you do have multiple users configured):
Run the Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE).
Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ Network\ Logon.
Double-click on the Process Logon Script value, and change the data from 00 00 00 00 to 00 00 00 01

Windows 95/98/Me (If nothing else works):
Install Tweak UI, and double-click the Tweak UI icon in Control Panel.
Choose the Network tab, and check the Log on automatically at system startup option.
Type your username (shown after Log Off in your Start Menu) and your password (leave it blank if you don't have one), and click Ok when you're done.
Click to expand...
