Default Networking Dialog Box for password

When starting the computer a dialog box comes up:

Enter Network Password
Enter Your Network Password for MicroSoft Networking
User Name
Password

I would assume that local networking has somehow gotten
activated but I have been unable to find how to deactivate
it... which I sure want to do to avoid Dialog Box popup.

Any solution will be much appreciated.

Go to control panel, network, primary network logon and select Windows
Logon. Go to control panel, passwords, user profiles and ensure the "all
user's" box is marked. If you have a password established, go to control
panel, passwords, change windows password, type the password in the old box,
leave the rest blank and OK your way out. If you have forgotten your
password, delete the .pwl file with your user name (mine is ron.pwl);
however, be aware that you will lose all passwords stored in the .pwl file.
If you do not have a password established or have deleted the .pwl file,
when the W95/98 logon screen appears at boot, type a user name only and hit
OK. If the logon screen continues to appear and you have Tweak UI
installed, go to the Paranoia tab and remove the mark from "clear last
user."
