12686	2001-05-16 08:15:00	I have set up user passworded logons with windows 98 family logons. These passwords work fine but if someone hits the esc key the password logon is by passed and you are logged on as the default user thus nulifying the reason for the password protection to the computer. Can I delete the default user logon so then they have to put in the correct password to access the computer. If so how do I do this?	Guest (0)

To understand how this functions and obtain instructions, insert your CD and in Windows Explorer go: D > tools > reskit > help and double-click on the 'rk 98book.chm' file and then enlarge to full screen. On the Contents Tab click 'System Policies' and read the extensive help that is available.	Guest (0)
