MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft Family Logon is a network client included with Internet Explorer 4.0 to provide a simplified way of logging on to Windows 95 using profiles. If you install this client, when you start your computer a dialog box containing a list of users that have been configured to use the computer appears. You can then select your name in the dialog box, type the password for your profile, and then click OK to load your personal settings.

Microsoft Family Logon is not the same as the Users tool in Control Panel, because it does not provide for the creation of users or profiles. For information about the Users tool in Control Panel, see the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
