Auto logon Windows XP?
I have two users in my XP. One is with administrator rights and second is with limited rights. I want that whenever I switch on my computer it should automatically logon the second user i.e the user which is having limited rights. I googled about this but find if I did as per Microsoft, It won’t open the second user Desktop but will open a window asking for second user’s password. I do not want this window, I want straightway Desktop of the second user( Not even blank password) . After that if I switch to administrator user, there I will put the password for administrator user. Please guide.
Update:Omer, As I wrote, I don't want password

If your computer have Windows Xp professional Sp3, you can config to automatical logon Windows Xp.
But not in other versions of Windows Xp pro.
Like in Windows Xp professional Sp2 this feature is not automatically installed .
Now the Question is how can we do it.
Its quite easy, Just follow below simple steps –:
1.Firstly start by opening your run box and enter “control userpasswords2”. [NOTE: Without quotes]
2. A New windows Will Open same as the screenshot below.
3.When the user accounts window opens uncheck the box which states ‘Users must enter a username and password to use this computer’ and apply the setting.
You will be requested for the username and password of the account you wish to automatically logon as for following reboots of your system.
1. Goto Run (Windows + R)
2. Type in control userpasswords2
3. Uncheck the checkbox that says 'User must enter a username and password to use this computer'
4. Press OK, it will ask you to enter default username password
5. Put in information of other account
It would work for home machine. May not work for a machine that is part of corporate network
