Re: XP Messenger

Try the following:

1. Tools, Options, Privacy Tab:
select "This is a shared computer".

2. Accounts Tab:
Clear out the account and password info.

3. sign off, then sign back in again.

Don't save the logon information.

see if this will meet your needs.

Re: XP Messenger

Unfortunatly not, in the account tab there is no information there. All there is is an option selected to sign in with this account first (net.passport) but no account details or passwords to delete.

Re: XP Messenger

Is your ISP MSN?

If it is, it's picking up the .NET login from the account connection. Setup a different account (sub-account) that logs in as "CyberCafe".
