Default Having To Log-in Twice

Very wierd situation here...

I have two accounts setup on my PC, one for guests
(friends that come over or whatever) and another for
myself (which is passworded).

Everytime I boot up the computer and login to my account,
it lets me in, starts loading up the carp that it needs
to load and then pops me out to the login screen showing
both accounts. I then have to click on my account again,
re-enter the password and I'm back in. It ONLY happens
when I first turn it on and login. It's not a big deal
but has me baffled.

I'm hardly on my desktop anyhow (wireless laptop) but
thought I would see if anyone has experienced the same
thing before.

This sounds very similar to a problem I'm having with my XP (Home)
machine (SP2 + latest patches). It seems to be related to the screen
saver password protection feature. What *seems* to be happening is
that I will Win-L to switch users, then later log back into my account.
If I'm not actively moving the mouse while my account is loading up all
my stuff, it will drop me back to the user list.

I don't want to turn off screen saver password protection (because it's
a necessary security feature), but was hoping someone had some ideas for
how to make it smart enough to not log me out immediately after I log
in.

Thanks,
Scott
