How do I Disable Auto Login

[Lenny]

Can anyone help me with this problem? Please forward your
answer to
As soon as I log onto the Internet, people on my MSN
messenger buddy list know im online. I do not even log
onto MSN. It seems that I have some "auto-login" clicked
somewhere. Can you please tell me the A,B,C's of getting
1- onto windows messenger and 2- fixing this problem. I
do NOT want people to know when Im online unless I click
onto my MSN Messenger.
Thank you
Lenny

Greetings Lenny,

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'.
