any idea if this works in XP Home ? Have never had a problem with pro, seems there is always the little check box to remember which is NOT on home machines. I have had to do the same user/pw on customer boxen to keep them all on their networks and figure there has to be a way to have home remember. Some obscure tool that is not there.
