Hi all

When someone enters information about a passport account,
for example when logging on to MSN messenger with
or whatever, that information is stored
in that profile and can be visible for later users.
How do I prevent other users from seeing this information?
This is probably an overall IE issue, or perhaps Windows
as well, but I'm grateful for answers!

Many thanks
Michael

Greetings Michael,

It's not an IE issue, but it is a Windows/Passport issue. To stop this from happening,
download and run the following .reg file:

You'll need to reboot Windows to see the change.
