I don't know why I always have to type my name and password to log in to my
homepage which is set to mymsn.com

MSN Messenger always signs in automatically and if I click the check mail
icon on MSN Messenger I go right to my Hotmail account with no problem, and
then I can get to mymsn without typing my name and password.

I have checked save my name and pass for my homepage but it never does.

Any suggestions?


TIA

You're deleting the "cookie" that contains that information.

That's what it would seem, but I am NOT deleting any cookies. It seems that
for some reason I cannot make this cookie stick.

Many anti-spyware programs will delete cookies. You have to choose the ones
you want the system to save and create an "exception" for each cookie.

There are also enhanced PopUp blockers that delete cookies upon exiting
Internet Explorer. I have one of these called PopUpCop (an excellent program
by the way). Again, an exception must be created for each cookie I want to
have saved.

I may have fixed my problem by added my.msn to always allow cookies. I check
back in a few days after a couple of reboots and see what happens.
