Hi,
I would speculate that one of the updates you installed was the .net
framework. It adds a user account to the system, and thus causes a logon
prompt when the system is rebooted. Click start/run, type "control
userpasswords2" (without the quotes) and click ok. Uncheck the box requiring
a username and password, click apply/ok and follow the prompts to set up a
default logon.
