This link is for the Windows XP not for Windows ME. I think she is trying to hide a user in Windows Me but I don't think that is possable. As most have come to see that Windows ME is one of Microsofts biggest mistakes.

Edit ---- OK after searching a bit I did find this registry tweek for Windows ME --

Hide the Last User Name

This setting can be used to blank the username box on the logon screen. This will prevent people that are logging on from knowing the last user to access the system.

Open your registry and find the key for your Windows version below.

Windows 98 or Me

Open [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Network\Logon]and create new string value called "DontShowLastUser" and set it to "1" to hide the last user.

Restart Windows for the change to take effect.

Remember that modifying the registry can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. We cannot guarantee that problems resulting from modifications to the registry can be solved. Use the information provided at your own risk.
