Hi. I set my MSN Messenger to sign me in automaticaly, and now, i can't change it back. Does anyone know a way that to change it so that you'll have to type in a password?

Start > Run, type:

CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2

and hit Enter.

In the resulting window click the "Advanced" tab, then on the "Manage Passwords" button. Highlight the MSN account in question and click "Remove".

hey, thanx heaps. I was wondering if you could get into this password management some other way than "run" and then typing the command line. E.g in control panel or something.

No, unfortunately you cannot. The "User Accounts" section of Control Panel is very limited, and this is the only way to do things :-(
