whenever i start up Windows Messenger, it automatically logs in to one of my
names. the thing is, i don't want it to automatically log on to that name,
since i don't normally use that name. so, i have to sign out of that one
first, and then i could use the one i want.

how can i stop it from automatically logging in all the time?

thanks in advance.

Greetings Rana,

To stop it from automatically logging in, 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'.
