I have tried with MSKB for a fix to the Welcome to
Windows" not appearing with the awgina.dll (did not find)
& the register fix to delete "gina.dll" - Have also
tried "Kelley's Korner" FIX to No avail.

ALSO, I have just started getting a "GUEST ACCOUNT"
showing up where I had just the one account. HOW do I
get rid of this AND are these 2 problems tied together.

Please help - I have exhausted my searches -
Your help is always appreciated -

Thanks,
Tom

AWGINA.DLL is not a windows file. It is part of PC anywhere. Use of PC
Anywhere can disable the Welcome Screen as the AWGINA.DLL is used instead of
the MSGINA.DLL file.

You need to see www.dougknox.com, Win XP Fixes, Restore XP's Welcome/Logon
Screen

This small fix will remove the GinaDLL value in:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

If this value does not exist, then XP defaults to the correct Gina DLL.
