Eliminate Network Passwords

Howdy,
I assume you mean the logon box that appears on Windows Startup. If this is the case, make sure that the password field is blank (no password). Right-click on 'Network Neighbourhood' and choose 'Properties' (or go to 'Control Panel' and double-click on 'Network'). Under 'Primary Logon', choose 'Windows Logon', click 'Ok' and reboot. You should get straight in to the desktop
Hope this helps

May The Force Be With You Do you actually logon to a network - or just standalone machine - because if you need network access you will need a network logon - so approach there would be to set up auto-logon (you can do this with tweakui) with network username/password. Then you don't get prompted, but you do log on.
Here's a complete rundown of suggestions to try:

* The suggestions apply to WinME as well. Although they are geared towards getting rid of the Windows prompt, it should help get rid of the network prompt as well.
