Get rid of user profiles but keep settings, win98?

I have different user profiles enabled with windows networking in windows 98 and I want to get rid of them. The problem is I want to keep the settings from a specific user profile. If I get rid of user profiles which settings will I be left with?

Another option would be to automatically log in to my prefered profile, so I can skip the windows networking dialogue at startup. Is there any way to do this?

Thanks in advance

TweakUI has an automatic login option.

Scroll down.

Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows 98, and Windows 95

Download TweakUI (version 1.33).

Unzip tweakui.zip using an unzip utility, such as WinZip, and place the files in a new folder in a convenient location, such as your desktop.

Right-click on the tweakui.inf file and select Install to install it on your system.

To start TweakUI, double-click the TweakUI icon in Control Panel.

Note: there's a bug in this installer (it's been there since the very first release, except for the new version for Windows XP). If it prompts you to insert a disk or specify the location of the Tweakui files, just point to the folder containing the files you just unzipped, and click Ok.
