Unwanted Windows Log-in Screen

[CosmicSurfer]

I'm running WinXp Pro, Sp2, OEM Legit Version from USA.

After recently installing a Windows Update, I'm suddenly getting a Windows Log-In screen, everytime I Boot.

I'm the Administrator and the only User on this Computer.

I've NEVER had this screen on this computer before !!!!

Why now??

How can I get rid of it??

It's a real pain and makes it necessary for me to remain at the computer when I boot it just to get past this screen so that the boot can complete.

HELP!!!! Please!

Thanks.. Mucho...

Any idea why this started to happen out of nowhere without any initialization by me?

Thanks again,

That is very weird, I have just had exactly the same problem on my main pc. I also use windows xp pro with sp 2

maybe some sort of problem with their latest update??

Microsoft probably calls it a feature.

I believe it's directly related to downloading the Microsoft .NET Framework off Windows Update...

I think you're right. Mine started showing a log in screen too. It's easy to fix so no problem.

NO.. can't be... I have the current update "Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1" waiting for download now...

It's been queued for a few days.. I wanted to deal with other issues like the Log-On problem BEFORE I downloaded it.

Coming Soon.. Hope The Log-On doesn't reappear.

There's also the .NET Framework 2.0, a separate version to 1.1 (they work side by side, no upgrade...so retarded), you may already have that one on your system...
