Anybody know how to get rid of that darn password requirement for Microsoft Network on Windows 98SE?
It pops up every time I turn on the computer and drives me nuts.
thanks
 

For No Password at all: Control Panel, Passwords, User Profiles. Check All users use the same settings. Do not reboot at this point.

Control Panel, Network, Primary Network logon set to Windows logon. If it isn't in the list, you'll have to click the Add button, and select it from the Client list. Reboot.

When the machine reboots, enter a user name and leave the password blank.
Click Ok, not Cancel. If asked to confirm the blank password, click Ok, not Cancel.
