Hi John,

If you have a network installed, each time you log on you will be asked for a password. 
To disable this: 

Right-click on the Network Neighborhood icon and select Properties 




On the Configuration tab, select Windows Logon in the Primary Network Logon box 
When Windows prompts you to restart your computer, click No 
Click the Start button, point to Settings, then select Control Panel 
Double-click the Passwords icon 




On the Change Passwords tab, click the Change Windows Password button, click OK, 
then set a blank password.

To remove the "Log Off user" entry from your Start menu: 

Start the Registry Editor 
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies 
\ Explorer 
Right-click an open area in the right pane and select New > DWORD Value 
Name it NoLogOff 
Double-click this entry and add the value 1 
Exit RegEdit and restart Windows 

Good luck....spaceman
