XP Logon Screen - passwords

Someone is posting in McAfee Support Forum about this and I'm sure it's a
Windows problem rather than a virus.
He says his XP Welcome/Logon screen shows his names with incorrect passwords
already filled in, so he has to clear them and enter the correct passwords.
What would cause this and how can they be cleared permanently?
I've never experienced this myself.
