Autologon For Windows

There is really no need for typing in your Windows account username and password every time you log into the operating system, at least not if you are the only user with access to the Windows PC. I personally have configured my system to automatically log me in every time the computer is booted and Windows is selected as the operating system. This is obviously not practical for everyone but it can make the life of Windows home users and single PC users a tad more comfortable.

Firefox, like any other web browser, offers options to zoom in or out of a web page temporarily which can be useful if a website uses fonts that are either to large or to small.
