i want to remove the users who used messenger from the pull-down menu

i tried by :
clicking the Start Button, then click the Control Panel. Then, click User
Accounts in the Control Panel. Select your account name, and then on the
left side of the screen, under Related Tasks, click 'Manage my Network
Passwords'.

when i select the user i want to delete , i can only change properties, the
delete button does not seem to work

any ideas ??

thanks

Greetings,

I assume you're using the Dutch version of Windows XP then? Unfortunately, there is a current
bug in the Dutch version of Windows XP which prevents you from removing passport information
from your account. As such, this won't work. As far as I know, this hasn't been fixed, but
you may want to run WindowsUpdate (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com on that computer to see
if there's an update that will fix this).
