Default User specific settings

Thanks Brian...that's what I was looking for! Now sorry if this is a dumb
question, but when I defrag the hard drive, do I need to log into each user
and defrag?


No, Defrag will do the entire hard drive chosen, regardless of which user starts it.


And also related, how do I prevent Windows from loading by hitting the
Cancel button at the login screen?


I'm not aware of a way to stop Windows from loading by using the Cancel button. If
you hit Cancel, Windows will load the default profile AFAIR. Brian will correct me
if I am mis-remembering.

Is there any way that Windows 98 has the capability to show certain
wallpaper, themes, and even files based on the login? For example if I want
my wallpaper to be a picture of T-Rex's and monsters, but my wife wants
flowers and bubbles, can we set it up so that Windows 98 remembers our
specific settings (maybe even startup programs)?

Do we choose the Windows Family login, or would it be the login for the
ethernet card we have installed? Thanks in advance!


You can setup a second user in Control Panel Users.
