warning when I sign on
when i sign on to messenger after entering windows xp, I get a message
telling me something like "you have been signed off messanger because you are loggen on in another computer". What's up? What computer? Also, I am supposed to be logged in when I enter windows (although I canot find where that is right now) and it was thus till the previous problem showed up- now I have to log in manually. Help welcome... Leo

Thanks.
1. How do I find out? 2. Yes, I see. It's set to run when I enter windows. A response to 1 might allow me to fix the problem? Leo Kelly wrote: 1.

warning when I sign on
1. Do you have a computer at work that you left on when you left?
2. Did you ever "log on" to your account using a friends computer? 3. Do any of your "friends" know your e-mail address and password? (you can guess the implications here)? If they are signed on, in your stead, they can access your e-mail and have great fun, at your expense, using messenger! This will also prevent you from logging on. This happened to my son a couple of years back. -- Regards: Richard Urban aka Crusty (-: Old B@stard :-) "Leo Kerner" wrote in message ... when i sign on to messenger after entering windows xp, I get a message telling me something like "you have been signed off messanger because you are loggen on in another computer".

Thanks, Richard...
1. Not anymore. Not since I have this account. 2. Yes. Also in internet cafes abroad early in the year. 3. Nobody knows my password. I can log on, getting the warning I indicated. Is there a way to find out if I am logged on somewhere, and/or force myself off? Cheers, Leo Richard Urban wrote: 1. Do you have a computer at work that you left on when you left? 2.

warning when I sign on
If you have any local friends who you message to, call them up and ask if
they see you on-line. If your account has been hijacked, the only way is to open a new account. Then tell all your contacts to block the old log-on address. Otherwise they may be constantly bothered by someone they don't know. -- Regards: Richard Urban aka Crusty (-: Old B@stard :-) "Leo Kerner" wrote in message ... Thanks, Richard... 1. Not anymore.

Very good question, Leo. Troubleshooting PassPort may have the answer for
you. In the meantime, check what is listed here, it will list your accounts. However, even though this isn't the issue on your current profile, you will at least know where to check, if you have access regularly to other systems. Go to Start/Run and type in: control userpasswords2. Advanced/Manage Passwords. Tip: Add Control Userpasswords2 to the Control Panel (Line 1) http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm You can also check he Start/Run/Regedit HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MessengerServ ice\ListCache\.NET Messenger Service. In the right pane, Identity Name Tip: Disable Storage of .Net Passwords (Line 223) Right hand side http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm Good luck! -- All the Best, Kelly Microsoft-MVP Windows® XP 2004 Windows MVP "Winny" Award Troubleshooting Windows XP http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com Taskbar Repair Tool Plus! http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/taskbarplus!.htm "Leo Kerner" wrote in message ...
