If you try and connect to an XP computer and are shown a logins screen with only the computername/Guest,
You may need to change one of the Local Security Policies:
Got to Control Panel – Administrative Tools
Go to Local Policies – Security Options
Check teh Network access: Sharing and security model for local accounts
Set it to Classic – local users authenticate as themselves

Another way to set the computer to clear the pagefile without directly editing the registry is:
Click on the Start button
Go to the Control Panel
Administrative Tools
Local Security Policy
Local Policies
Click on Security Options
Right hand menu – right click on “Shutdown: Clear Virtual Memory Pagefile”
Select “Enable”
Reboot
If you want to clear the page file on each shutdown:
Start Regedit
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\
Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\ClearPageFileAtShutdown
Set the value to 1
