I have been running windows XP on my Imac using parallels 5 for about a year. Now out of the blue it is asking for a windows password. I don't have one and I am blocked from getting to my windows programs. Has this happened to anyone else?

If you haven't set a password for login to XP, it shouldn't be asking for one. Have you tried just tapping enter? In other words, a null password?

If it still persists asking for a password, try starting XP in safe mode. Press F8 and hold it while booting.
