I'm so sorry but you haven't provided enough information to get focused
help. Please review these links which will show you what details to include

In the meantime:

The First Question Of Troubleshooting: what changed between the time things
worked and the time they didn't?

The Second Question of Windows Troubleshooting: what is the malware/virus
status of the machine? If you think it is clean, what programs (and
versions) did you use to determine this?

Be sure the computer is clean:

So what makes you think security is compromised? What is the actual problem?
You can't log on automatically to Windows? What does this have to do with
"MSN MyPage" whatever that is? You need to make things clear using full
sentences and good descriptions. We can't help you if you don't communicate
more.

As for anything to do with the web interface to these groups, I can't help
you except to say you'd be best off setting up a real newsreader - very
easy to do. The web interface is dreadful and the worst way to access these
Usenet newsgroups. See information below.

Since you are using the web interface, you may not realize that this is
really a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you learn
to use a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows, but you
can use Outlook Express (XP) or Windows Mail (Vista) since you already have
it. Here are some links to information about newsgroups:

Did this happen after installing a new software or new updates from MS?.
You can elect to have the System Save your Login details if you are the only
user on this machine from either the browser (IE7) or from the software you
are using, if it does have such a feature?.
I don't think what you describe resemble a security risk at all!.
HTH.
