I turned off the computer, and after restarting it my (administrator)
account did not come up. Two others (guest and another administrator) did.
How is this possible? Can I retrieve "my documents", the emails in Outlook,
etc??

I hope someone can guide me! many thanks

The administrator account that is created during
installation will no longer show up when you create your
own users.
In Windows XP PRO: Type CNTL-ALT-DELETE twice at the
login screen. that will allow you to logon with
teh "original administrator account"
In Windows XP Home: Start in Safe mode to access the
Administrator account
