Is there a default ssh password if no Windows password is present?


Is there a default ssh password if no Windows password is present?  When I
attempt to ssh into a WinXP machine with no Windows account password, I
still get prompted for a password and I can't seem to guess what it is
(null, anonymous, etc don't seem to work).  I have set up autentication
keys and ssh is successful, but I want to be certain that there isn't a
default password that I don't know about which would open my system up to
the world.
