Hi,

I set up my MSN Messenger but now every time I click on it to log on, it logs on without asking my password. I was too fast with the mouse and forgot to uncheck the box that asked to associate the account with the password. I checked in Options to see if there is any place I can uncheck the box to not remember my password?

Thanks,
Veets

Signout using the icon beside the clock. Then right click that same icon and choose "Sing In As" and see if you can change the option there.

And you are right clicking it, right? Not just clicking it?

HI,
All you need to do is logon to your MSN account through the web NOT the Messenger this time, change your password from there, and come back to the MSN you will then be ask to enter your new password, please make sure you remember your new password and dont choose to save it again.If you like you might still change to the former password.
If further problem, pls get back.

Hi Folks, Since yesterday my internet explorer could not be opened, after every double click, the cursor looks busy and later released without opening the IE. No new program or application was install

Hi,

I tried it and when I click on "Click here to sign in" it logs me in automatically. Unless MSN changed, I thought there was a place where you were able to go in and delete the password. I know I can do that with Outlook where it forces me to type in the password every time I want to log on. I also do the same thing with AIM.
