Gary I fixed it. read on might help in the next trouble user with wlm wlmd?

An reply back to support via e mail

"Just did it and still no luck at all? even tried in the admin account I
can log in to messenger or on the web no problems at all just can not do it
in wlmd ?
I have found out that wlmd or in vista called wlm does not take a changed
password with the same symbol in the new password. Maybe this should be
fixed. Some one should be looking in to this problem? With more of my time on
this I changed my passwords for the three accounts with no symbols at all and
just letters and numbers works just find.
Now I have changed all my new passwords from strong to medium. So if some
one has a problem like this maybe this can be a trouble shooting step.
Please pass this information on to your boss or higher up if you can I don't
know why it would do this? The Id log in is used as messenger and its
outdated I guess? Could be the fact I used the @ symbol in my old password
for two of my accounts and will not log me in? anyway have changed the
password then about two months later change them back maybe the system will
clear it up???? Maybe should have a help file or something in the help part
of the program so everyone knows it has to be 100% different. nothing the
same as the old password. I have not tried other symbols as a new password.

Hope they do a update for wlm darn wish I found this out when I was beta
testing it ? It's the same in xp too. I tryed both vista sp1 and xp sp3.
Anyway thank you for your support I fixed this one lol!!"

So thanks gary for the help too.

yes I changed my hotmail account password just that wlm for vista will not
let me use the new password to login to the accounton wlm. when I go to the
web mail it log's in fine. its like that for my live.com and ca accounton wlm
vista

:

How did you change your password? Was it cleared through Microsoft?
Does it work if you go to the web at http://hotmail.com or http://live.com?
