Log on Windows XP

After my computer automatically dowloaded updates for Xp and Norton AV my computer now requires me to logon as a userwhereas previously it just went straight into windows.
I can't remember or find how to auto logon.
Anyone help?

Fast User Switching

Switch on fast user switching in the control panel and remove user accounts (not adin or system accounts) other than your self and it will auto logon to your account

Go to the users option in control panel and untick the box that says 'users must enter a password to log on'

Simple as that

If you go and click on your username in the users control panel, then there should be the option. Then once you have rebooted and logged in once you wont need to anymore.

In theory...

If I had the net at home I would post some pics on how to do it. But I dont and Im on a PC with restricted access.
