Start up the computer and click Cancel at the logon prompt. Delete
the file C:\Windows\<username>.pwl, where <username> is the name of
the user that you deleted.

Go to Control Panel | Network and set the primary network logon to
Windows logon.

Click Start | Log Off, and at the logon prompt enter a user name and
no password, then click OK. It won't ask for a logon again.
