I am running a T42 with XP Pro.
I am the only user of the computer but everytime it comes out of standby I have to click on my user icon.

Any idea how to get around this?

Thanks in advance!

On mine, the first window that opens after opening the batt maximizer wizard has a check box for that password prompt.

Perhaps you can try Control Panel -> Power Options -> Advanced -> uncheck "Prompt for password when computer resumes from standby".

If all that fails, I believe there's also an option for it in the BIOS.
