I found this on the Regedit.com site:

Automatic Logon without Name or Password (Windows 9x)
This setting allows Windows clients to logon without entering a user name or password, therefore bypassing the logon box.

1. Using Regedit, open the key below.

2. Create a new String Value, and name it 'Default Password'.

3. Modify the data of 'Default Password' to match the default users password.

The default username is stored at:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Network\Logon] - Username

4. Reboot and the system should automatically logon.

Note: The password is stored in clear text, therefore anyone with access to the registry can see the default password!


Registry Settings:
Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Winlogon]
Value Name: Default Password
Data Type: REG_SZ

1. Delete all files in Windows directory ending with .pwl

2.Open system.ini, go to [Password List] section, delete all entries under this section.

3.Go to Control Panel - doubleclick Network, Under Primary Network Logon choose Windows Logon

4. Restart, you'll have to enter a name, just click OK, don't enter a paasword. You won't see it again.
