Eliminating Windows Vista Password

Evey 30 days or so I am prompted to change my windows user password. I am the only user of the PC. Is there a way to eliminate the password function forever from my PC?
Thank you.

Re: Eliminating Windows Vista Password

To disable automatic password changes, open the Registry Editor by going to Start | Run and typing regedt32.exe. Navigate to the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters

Change the DisablePasswordChange registry entry to 1.
