Default Removal of the need for Password !!!

When I turn my computer of using Windows 98 2nd Edition I
wish to simply wish to see my desktop as usual. Instead I
am requested to to enter a password for "Microsoft
Networking". This is a waste of time thus I wish to get
rid of the need for a password.

Thanks

Default Removal of the need for Password !!!

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."
