Desktop log on data

i have Win XP Home and i use 2 difference desktops, Administrator for
Administrator duties and Limited for e-mail and surfing the web each of which
is password protected and after the screensaver comes on to re-enter you need
to know the password. i believe that someone has logged into my computer and
my question is- Does the computer keep a dated log when desktops are logged
into? If so, how do i access this information? How many log ons would be
listed?

Thank you for the quick reply. I did read the article, was most
helpful....i am assuming that the times my desktop name shows up is when the
desktop was logged onto, is that correct (just want to be absolutely positive
of what i see) and there are other logons by "user" Network service and
Local service, what is that??

Thanks again for all the help.
