    Cable is an always on connection, there shouldn't be a need to logon to the internet. Perhaps you could give us a little more information and then maybe someone here will be able to help. What account is it they are trying to logon to? Their Windows XP user account or something else?

    I deleted my sons old account and started a new one.
    Same thing happens.For some reason it tries to use a "search for it" url and I set it up for comcast home.?(connections) Then it displays a "could not be found" or connect or something like that

    There seems to be some confusion here.

    What accounts are you trying to set up?

    Windows? Comcast?

    What does this mean: "I set it up for comcast home.?(connections)"

    Your Comcast account should be set for everyone. It is a basic connection to an ISP.

    User accounts are accessed thru XP:

    Try options thru: Start > Control panel > User Accounts

    Change an account ...etc...

    Or create new accounts.

    Sorry if I am missing something

    other links found:

    limited users cannot internet

    example:

    Guests are not allowed to connect to the Internet. This is by design.
