I setup remote desktop on my computer and changed the listen port and firewall . What I want to do is have one account that when the computer is turned on logs in automatically with out a password and another account that has a password for remote desktop. Anyway to set this up?

Pretty simple:

1) Get the Microsoft Powertoy utility, Tweak UI, to setup the auto logon
2) Save the Remote Desktop Connection settings (username, password, domain, check save my password, display resolution, etc.) to a RDP file
3) Create a shortcut of the RDP file in your Startup folder
