>No, thank god. It is the security on the system. I run NT on my laptop too and I am very glad for that log in requirement, it meqans when I am teaching a class and my screen saver comes up that no students can go poking around in my system while I am on a break. It alos means if I leave my station on a contract job that no one can poke around. It emans that no one can boot my computer without knowing the userid and password.

And it seems that "means" it's a difficult word for your keyboard... :) You should change it! :)
