I know - you are the "only one who lives there, the only one who uses your
computer".. etc. Great. When your home gets broken into and computer
stolen (either physically or virtually) <- you may be thinking something
else, like "all of my (the only person who lives here, the only person who
uses that computer) records, pictures, emails, financial information, cached
passwords, contacts, etc.. are on that computer."
But that is an individual choice. You get to weigh the risks. =)

an xp password wont protect your files.. I would boot it from a linux
live cd and have full access of everything on the hdd.. user accounts
on xp are only useful for when one or more people use the computer
stopping them so they can't see your personal files.
