hey - can anyone tell me how to stop windows messenger
from signing in to my account whenever we connect to the
internet? it doesnt ask for a password - and so any
member of my family has easy access to my emails (which
isnt a good thing) - so please please help me!!!!!!!

Greetings Madeline,

To turn off the automatic login, click 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'. In the window that
opens, click the Passport.Net\* (Passport) entry and click 'Remove'.
