Fast User Switching in Windows XP

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize (More info?)

You don't ever want Fast User Switching! It is such a resource hog, that it
bogs down the computer. What happens is, Windows stars a whole new computer
on the same computer that another account is running on. You are running
applications under both accounts...essentially running two computers on one
computer! Why would you want that? Log off!!!
