I don't quite agree with brokencrow's statement but I also don't quite agree with your statements HT... I don't think autologin is evil, and I understand it is security through obscurity, and yes I frown upon it, but security through obscurity is better then no security at all... Your comments suggest otherwise...

How about this scenario:

A friend of your's comes over to your house and he brings one of his friends (who you do not know) over with him. After your friend introduces you to this other individual, you head to the bathroom for 2 minutes (or whatever happens to shift your attention away from this person). This person finds your computer and can access all your data and steal it because auto login is enabled. Do you think this person would be able to do this in 2 minutes if auto login wasn't enabled? No... And what are the odds that this guy is a computer genius that carries boot disks with him everywhere he goes?

Simple scenario but this could happen, and in this scenario, basic security would prevail...

As said before, not everyone is the great HTRegz or the great Duck
