Vista - Autologon not such a good idea.

Autologon not such a good idea.

I have noticed that vista boots up to a usable desktop faster if I logon
manually, rather than let windows logon automatically. For me, boot time is
significantly increased from ~94secs to ~45 secs (as logged in
diagnositics-performance in the event viewer). I wonder if this is
reproducible on other machines.

Re: Autologon not such a good idea.

I've noticed no difference (just tested it again to ensure no recent update
caused a change).
