auto open a user account in XP
Deadly:
For XP the easiest way I found is to do this:
Start => run
Type: control userpasswords2 <-click ok or press enter
uncheck the box that says: User's must enter a user name and password to access this system
End result is the same as Tweakui - to each their own ;)

I wish people wouldn't just post a link... would it be so hard to write just a few words to go with it?

Something like "Google it!" ?

You know, when you add the word "Google" to a thread, the page goes up in Google's ranks.
I get this at least half of the time I try to use Google. Your first 5 results are forum posts where the replies say "Google it, you lazy bum," and the question is never actually answered. Incredibly annoying. Don't just tell someone to "Google it" unless you've already tested your theory...and if you've done that, it's not much harder to paste a link and say, "try this."
Granted, this was a simple question, and Google would have been fine. But it just as easily could have yielded a results page full of threads where the only information is how apparently stupid the OP is for asking.
Sorry, I know... :blah: I don't mean to get upset. It just gets on my nerves, and I hate to see it here.

No, I mean something like "Here's a link to...". You posted a link with no explanation.
