when my pc rebooted , it asked me for my password of logon"which i didnt spacify before"
i dont have password for my account or for the administrator account
and now i cant logon to my computer
any ideas how to remove that password without reinstalling the windows

Did you try pressing Enter when prompted for your accounts password? This should work on the account you logged into without a password before. Windows Update does not add passwords except for the asp.net account, which is added if you install the .net framework.

The Welcome to Windows screen appears when you start Windows XP after you install the .NET Framework 1.1

If you ever get back in using your blank password you may find the lower half of this thread useful.
