Deleting XP User Accounts

I have a PC which has several XP users set up with user/password requirements.
The PC is now only used by myself.
How do I delete the old user accounts in the correct way and also leave the PC in a state where it boots up in my profile without having to enter a password ?

control panel, user accounts.Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:0

control panel/user accounts - click on each user you no longer want and delete account... When yours (and guest) are the only ones left you will boot straight in. To delete your passwords, or change your user account settings, do so in your account in same place...0

to have it bbot straight to your account you must also remove the password to your account
do not delete the asp.net account!
if booting into your account does not work check you have the latest updates particularly for the .net framework0 -
And you'll need administrator rights on your own profile.
If not, log in as Administrator, change your account to an Administrator, then log on as yourself and delete the unwanted ones.0
