You can, but not having an XP box in front of me, I'll have to
make up an answer until I get back to my machine at home.  IIRC, you
go into the control panel and users.  There's a checkbox of something like
"log in as this user" or a password setting or something.

That'll be my answer till tonight or someone with an XP box in front of
them answers.
