O.P. Automatic logon
I used to have Windows automatically log me in, but for some weird reason, it shows the welcome screen with my username. I have to click my username for it to logon. I don't recall changing any settings for it to start up like this. How can I put it back to normal.
I have searched the internet, and found that by typing control userpasswords2 into Start>Run, it works, but when I come back from a screensaver it will so the welcome screen instad of go back to my desktop.
There has only been one user on the pc, so that shouldn't affect it.

This is the default behaviour of the Windows Screensaver - get the Display Properties control up, screensaver tab, "On Resume Display Welcome Screen" - turn it off.
