Lets go for the easier root. Download the free application called TweakUI http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx (You need to look on the right hand side of the web page and select TweakUI.exe (not the titanium version)
Once you have downloaded it, install it and then run the application. In the TweakUI main window click the + (plus) sign next to the Logon option and then click 'Autologon' In the auto logon window put a tick in the box marked 'log on automatically at system startup' then click OK. Now restart your PC and you should boot straight to the desktop.
