Two administrator accounts?

When i turn off the welcome screen option, and the computer automatically log-on to an account call "administrator", and not my account that i've created. This administrator started to appear when i ran my computer in safe mode, and when i got back, the computer log on to "administrator", and not my own account, and when i tried to detel the administrotr account, it said that i can't. My account is set as a administrator user. HOw can i make my computer to log on to my account as a defaut, and not this administrator. Also, this admistatror account is not on the welcome screen, when i enable welcome screen log on. I don't like the welcome screen because thet make you click on the user account eventho, you only got one. How can i make the computer log on as my own personall account and not administrator??

Go to Start -> Run, type in "control userpasswords2" without the quotes and press Enter. Check and then Uncheck the box at the top (to clear the current autologon), click OK, type in your username and password in the correct fields, and viola! :-)
