Windows Welcome Screen: Locked & Logged On. How to Skip

I'm the only user of my laptop. No kids at home and hubby is computer
challenged :)
When I turn on my Win 7 laptop and before I can get into Windows, there is a
blue screen, icon in the middle and my name below it. Sometimes below my
name it will say "locked" and "switch user" is below that. All I have to do
is click on the icon and I'm in Windows. Sometimes instead of "locked", it
says Monica "logged on". Again, I just click on the icon to enter Windows.
I didn't create any password (and I'm not asked for one) and there are no
other accounts on this computer. Can I bypass this screen so the computer
can just go straight into Windows without any input from me? The answer has
GOT to be staring me in the face but I'm not finding it.
Thanks,
Monica
