    Making Folder Private Gives a Password Prompt at Bootup - HELP!

    Hi guys! I'm running XP Pro SP3. I made a folder 'private,' thinking it would password-protect the folder. But, when I boot my computer, I'm prompted for a password to start my computer. This never happened before and its not what I want. I'd always boot my computer without a password prompt.
    And when I try to undo changes by right-clicking properties on any folder, on the 'Sharing' tab, I see that the 'Make this folder private' option is greyed out.

    How do I stop my computer from booting up with a password prompt? What do I do?
