Greetings Rob,
Since you're sharing a computer, you may want to turn off the saving of .NET Passports in
Windows XP (everyone will then be prompted to enter their username and password, and it will
not save this information). To do so, download and run this .reg file:

After running/importing, reboot for the changes to take effect.
