Xp uses the "welcome screen" by default. This screen has the names of all accounts on the

system so that the user only has to click on their name and type a password. Come on now.... We arent that damn lazy. If we change this screen to the normal login, then prying eyes will have to know a username and password to get in. Follow the instruction below to change this.

control panel >> user accounts >> change the way users log on or off

uncheck the box next to "Use Welcome Screen" and choose "apply options".

12. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disable Remote Registry..........(why would I need to edit my registry remotely anyway?) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

right click "my computer" >> manage >> services and applications >> services >> " stop and disable" Remote Registry.

NOTE: disable any services running in this area that you arent using.
