changing saved passwords?

[Jean]

I have been trying to access a site I had to put a user
name and password in. I saved the password on windows
and think I may have put the wrong one. Now I can't
access my account on the site at all. How can I change
all windows saved passwords on my computer? I can't
find this option on Windows XP.

Thank You in advance for your help!

That depends on where the password was saved. Some sites store the password
in cookies and in other instances, autocomplete kicks in. Then again some
sites are using Passport. Typically if it's an autocomplete issue, you do
have the chance to change it.

You can delete cookies via the internet options control panel applet. First
properties sheet look for the delete cookies button.
As for passport, try the user control panel applet. Double click on your
name and in the related tasks box, hit manage my network passwords and see
if you can find what you're looking for.
