    Did you download Windows Net Frame by chance? That is the only program on windows xp that causes the sign in screen. If you did, there is now and update to Net Frame it is 1.1 , and after installing that, the screen will go away, that is if you are the only user. If you have more users listed on your computer, then it is there for each persons sign on. Try the update, it got rid of it for me. :)

    If you don't want to log on at all, then just go to the page that Nirvana showed you, and uncheck use welcome screen, then go

    Start -> Run -> control userpasswords2

    Then uncheck "Users mustr enter a username and password to use this computer". It'll ask you for a username and password to use, and then you will never need to log in again :)
