A client of mine has xp pro running on an ibm t40 notebook and today a
message came up when he went to log in "your password expires in 10 days"
HUH?
Xp Pro is registered- why did it do this and how do i fix this?
thanks

It's talking about the PASSWORD, not the REGISTRATION. Go
to Control Panel as Administrator, Users, select the user
account and set it to "Pawword never expires".
 
thank you

I checked in control panel/users and I can't see anywhere you can do this. Are you thinking of a program in admin
tools/computer management/local users and groups/users

Double-Click your name under Local Users and select the checkbox password
never expires :-)
