Start | Settings | Control Panel | User Accounts | Change the way users log on or off | Use the Welcome Screen.

I think there is something about the logon in regedit here:

HKLM/software/windows NT/currentversion/winlogon

If its not there check here:

HKLM/software/windows/currentversion/winlogon

Go back to User Accounts and select your name. Then click "Remove my password." Do that for both the accounts that should take care of it.
