How do I change to manual login??

[bugs]

Hi,

I have messenger 4.7 setup in my computer, and it logins
just by clicking the icon without asking for password.
How do I de-activate the automatic login, as I'm using a
shared computer, so I do not want others to just loging
freely into my messenger. Pls advise. Tks.

Hi

Follow these steps:

1. In the Messenger main window, click the Tools menu,
click Options, and then click the General tab.
2. Clear the Automatically run Messenger when I log on to
Windows check box.

Greetings,

To do this, click the Start Button, then click the Control Panel. Then, click User Accounts
in the Control Panel. Select your account name, and then on the left side of the screen,
under Related Tasks, click 'Manage my Network Passwords'. In the window that opens, click
the Passport.Net\* (Passport) entry and click 'Remove'.
