I agree Windows Auth is the way to go, but this DB is for a website and
as such, Windows Auth is not practical.
I was planning to encrypt the password using .NET before storing it in
the DB.

I'm not sure what the built in encryption / authentication SQL2005 has
other than Windows Auth. Is there another feature?

I used an unique index on name because I wished to have fast lookups of
names. I thought an index was how to best accomplish this, No?

I'm not possitive when to use indexex on a column and when to do so on
multiple columns. I don't get the difference.
