Hi is there a way I can configure a hotkey so when i press on it it will automatically type the password in the logon screen of xp, because I dont like to type my long password every time I logon or when it's locked.
But I want to keep it password protected so no one can open it.

Learn to live with it or make your password shorter. The fact of the matter is that Windows is blind and cannot see that it is you logging on before your user profile are loaded.
