Hi
Vista has suddenly started to pop up a box saying Enter Network Password.

My isp is listed already as is my user name and password. I have to press
Ok about three times before it will stay away for aprox 30 mins then it comes
back again.
I have checked the remember my password box but this makes no difference and
when the box next apears this is unchecked again. It does not seem to be
stopping anything but it sure is annoying.
Please can anyone help.
 
Hi Mark I found it Internet Explorer. I did as you said change to automatic
with current password if this works I will be very gratefull
Many thanks
 
Has not worked still popping up. My internet provided sent message SMTP
Authentication required. I followed there instructions. I think this maybe
the start of this but i don't know how to put it right.

I would appreciate any help
Many thanks

That message is from your ISP's outging mail server. Some program is trying
to send mail. Do you have any idea which program? What is the complete
error message?
 
It was me trying to send mail. can,t remember error message but it gave me a
web address to visit and there was instructions on it to switch on SMTP I
followed them and mail was sorted. but pop ups started. My mail is ok again
now and I have sent to ISP for help with pop ups
will let you know how I get on
Many thanks for your help
 
While in Windows Mail:
Click the Tools Menu
Choose "Accounts" towards the bottom of the menu
Hi-lite your email account and click "Properties"
Click the "Servers" tab

At the bottom of the dialog box
put a checkmark in "My server requires authentication"

Click "OK"
Click "Close"

There 'ya go!
 
I am in Outlook 2007 & it is not the same but thanks anyway. ISP said to
delete and set up mail accounts again this seems to have solved the problem.

I upgraded from XP to vista and from Office 2003 to 2007 at the same time
it's been a bit of a culture shock.
I don't know what I would have done without you guys
many thanks
