When I open my laptop lid, or boot the machine up, I come first to "my name
locked" of which I can click on it and then I go into Windows. I can click on
"switch user" BUT what I want is ....... to simply bypass this page when I
boot my computer up or lift the lid. I don't want to see this page. Can
someone please give me instructions as how to set this so this snag will go
away. Thanks!

And your Internet Explorer question would be...?

Try posting here instead: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general

at logon with fast switch disabled

I've somehow solved my problem - checked "user account" - rebooted - problem
was gone. Then I unchecked "user account" - rebooted - problem has gone. How
it disappeared is beyond me.
As to "use welcome screen at logon with fast switch diabled" ---- I don't
see that anywhere in my User Account and do not recall having seen it. What
version of Vista are you referring to?

Yes, well PABear - the Internet Explorer question would be - why did I post
here? This question is open to all.
