I came to the computer while the screen saver was on, after doing something yesterday, and it says that it's password protected and has the username as "owner". No one put a password on the computer. So, how do I remove this? I got an HP Windows XP Home Edition, with DSL internet.

It only pops up when the screen saver comes on for a period of time.

Restart the computer
then go to the desktop and right click to get the screen saver setting.. From there just untick the password box or change it..
Hope this helps & good luck,

Remove the check from the "password protected" on the screen saver settings.

Go into the Control Panel and click the Users icon
Go to the account you want to change the password for
Reset the password, leaving the password fields blank, and it will remove the password.

reboot (you may have to hold the power button down untill the computer shuts off). then when it's up and running again, right click on the desktop, click on properties and then the screen saver tab. uncheck the resume on password check box

Go to change Password and write nothing to the new password.

Nothing to worry about all you have to do is to open the control panel and follow to remove your password or you may ask your administrator to do it for you.
