The Windows XP Welcome screen provides any intruder with a list of user accounts, some of which may even offer helpful password hints. To replace the Welcome screen permanently with the more secure Windows 2000–style log-on box, launch the Control Panel's User Accounts applet, click on Change the way users log on or off, and uncheck Use the Welcome screen. (This will also disable Fast User Switching.)
