Yes - here's what I do:

First, delete all PWL files from %windir%\System (where %windir% is your
Windows folder).

Next, delete the equivalent entries from the SYSTEM.INI's [Password Lists]
section - including the RNA entry.

Next, open Control Panel  Network and ensure Client for Microsoft Networks
and Microsoft Family Logon are installed. Make Microsoft Family Logon the
Primary Network Logon.

Reboot.

When asked for a username and password, enter a username and hit Return.
Hit Return to confirm the blank password. That's the last time you'll be asked
to logon to Windows.

When you logon to your ISP, you'll have to enter your username and password,
but once connection is established, these will be remebered for future logons,
provided you checkmark the appropriate box.

Hope this helps,
