When I open my computer (in the morning) why do I have to input a password? I just want to go STRAIGHT to my desktop and begin. How do I delete the use of username and password at the start up of my computer? Thanks, Fran

hello, this is no question about firefox, so it's offtopic in our forum... go to the windows control panel and disable the password in the accounts section
