Messenger default user name source?

[Marty Prager]

Trying to install MSN 5.0 onto a XP machine that had MSN
4.0 installed. Successfully removed 4.0 thanks to tip
from Jonathon Kay. 5.0 is installed and running but it
default sign-in user is my spouse not me. What do I need
to change so the default name is correct? Thx. Marty

Greetings Marty,

To change the default Passport, click Start, then Control Panel, then User Accounts, click
the current Windows XP account that you're logged in under, then click "Change my .NET
Passport", choose the "Use a Different Passport" button and go through the wizard.
