Hi,

I'm using the TextBox.PasswordChar property with a '*' to mask passwords
written in the textbox.

In some workstations it works fine , but there are some workstations
(win2K and XP) that when the user enters the password it is not masked
and you can see the actual chars and not the asterisks.

I've never seen anything like it.

Please help.

Do other password text boxes in other applications work correctly?

I'd check the target systems for installed tools that de-mask password text
boxes.
