After a visit to the Windows Update Center:

After downloading fixes from Microsoft Windows Update page or via Automatic Updates, you may notice Welcome Screen appearing at startup [previously it used to go to Desktop directly]. This is caused by the .NET Framework Update from Microsoft. It creates an additional user account called ASP.NET, which you can see in the Control Panel User Accounts applet. This is the reason you are seeing the Welcome Screen at startup. But, don't need to remove this update or don't delete this account. You can still configure Windows XP to automatically login using these methods:

To get access to a user account control panel that will allow you to set up accounts for automatic logon in Windows XP, you must use the command line and an obscure control application. At the command prompt, enter: To enter a command line prompt simply press Windows Key + R to open the run command and type in, or copy and paste, the command line below and click OK.

control userpasswords2

From this control panel, you can uncheck the Users Must Enter A Name And Password To Use This Computer setting. When you click the Apply or OK button, you will be asked to supply a password (you can leave it blank). After clicking OK on that screen, you will have set your PC to log on automatically.

Common Mistakes to be avoided while using this method

For Windows XP Home, don't try to auto-login as Administrator. This is because Windows XP Home Edition does not allow logging in as Administrator from Normal mode. Once you uncheck the option "Users must enter a user name" and click OK/Apply, Administrator account name will be displayed in the text box. Type-in a different user name and password in order to auto-login to that account. 

Take care while entering the password. Typing an incorrect password makes XP freeze at startup (during authentication) due to incorrect password and then displays the Welcome Screen after a few seconds.
