Login Question

[Madal]

When you log into MSN, the e-mail list shows saved
addresses. Does anyone know how to remove entries from
this list as I have one or two redundant addresses and it
would be good if they didn't keep appearing in the list?

Greetings Madal,

To remove these names, 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, you can remove an account by clicking the passport you wish to delete [denoted by
(Passport)], and then click the 'Remove' button. For more detailed instructions and
screenshots on this procedure, see here:

To stop these from saving (note this will remove yours as well and stop any saved Passport
from working), download and run the following .reg file:

You'll need to reboot to see the change.
