whenever I start MSN messenger, it already has my user name and password saved, so anyone can just click “click below to sign in: myname@hotmail.com“
i am running windows xp, and I remember one time it didnt do that, where MSN would require you to type in your user name and password everytime you start msn.
**UPDATE**
i fixed the problem, you had to go to C:Program FilesMSN Messenger and right click on msnmsgr.exe, go to properties, and change compatibility to Windows 2000. but.. how do I get it to work without changing to compatibilty to windows 2000?
You probably had checked the option to remember user name and password. Now (if I am correct) when you open MSN messenger there is a sign in button that signs you in automatically. What you must do is go to Control Panel, User Accounts, Pick the user name where this is happening, and then click on Manage My Network Passwords which should be the first option on the top left. Then delete the name that is automatically signing in. I hope this helps.
