Picture & Msg won't stay

[Teri C]

Hi!~

I am using 7.5.0322 and I change my picture then change my personal message
yet when I sign out, then sign back in my pic and personal message has
returned to the orignals!! Why won't those settings keep?

TIA,
Teri C

Greetings Teri,

You might want to make sure that your preferences are set to be saved. To check this, open
the main Messenger window, click the Tools menu, then Options, then Security tab, and make
sure that "This is a shared computer so don't store my address book, display picture, or
background on it" isn't selected.

Thanks Jonathan.

I checked it and it was NOT checked. However, I checked it, hit apply,
signed out, signed back in, then UNchecked it and hit apply, changed the pic
and message, signed out and back in again and it seemed to have stuck...so
hopefully this worked!

Thanks again,
Teri C
