outlook/password not being saved

i am very sorry for keeping on about this problem but whenever I open my
outlook profile, a box pops up asking if I want my username and password to
be saved (before it starts a send and receive).

Now I have had Doug Knox's fix (Kindly sent in by Carey Frisch) and a lot of
other help, but nothing seems to work. I go to the protected Storage system
provider (save to desktop)>> PSSP (check that I have full control set under
permissions) Try to delete subkey (Error deleting subkey message)

Alternative :- do all of the above except where it says replace permission
entries on all child objects (under the advanced button of Permissions)
place a check. This allows me to then delete the Key. Only problem is, when
I then create a new profile and fire up Outlook , I get the same problem and
the subkey has been reinstalled in the registry.

This is driving me nuts. Can anyone talk me through this step by step
because the MS KB article doesn't help me. What else can I do? Would a
complete uninstall/reinstall help?

Did you check your account information in Outlook Express. Your mail and
newsgroup accounts, will have settings ( click on properties) to open the set
up information for your newsgroups and pop mailer. You can see if a user and
password are saved in it's configuration, as well as if you set up if your
server ( ISP) requires authorization to access your email and newsgroups
which if so you have to check the box stating my server requires
authorization to open this account. You should also check to see if the end
user account and password are present, if not enter them.

Hi Jenifer,
I am using Outlook 2003 not Outlook Express. I only use OE for newsgroups so
I dont have any e mail settings in OE. My problem is with Outlook not
Outlook express
