For the very first problem:
Q: I have to use Ctrl+Alt+Del to log in, what's up?
A: No empty passwords, automatic log in allowed after installing CIS. It's a GPO thing, a step for higher security Angel

Are you kidding?

If that's the case, then why does it allow me in without a login after entring the Alt-Cntl-Delete?

Not really, you can't log in automatically without the Ctrl+Alt+Del. In earlier version - i haven't checked recent one - you couldn't use empty password. Maybe this has changed but you still need pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del, what is a group policy setting.

Then can you explain
   Why the Alt-Cntl-Delete is not always required?  Granted it's probably required 95% or more, but not every time.
   When you uncheck Defense+ / Advanced / Image Execution Control Settings / "Detect shellcode injections", then the Alt-Cntl-Delete isn't required?  That's how I'm running now.
