Won't save password
Hi
I recently formatted my hard drive and reinstalled Windows ME. Now, every time I go to log on to a certain web site which requires a password, the "Enter Network Password" box comes up blank, even though I put a check in the "Save this password in your password list" line each time. Win Me does not seem to want to remember my log on info for Network Passwords, although it will remember passwords for sites which have regular log in fields on the page. Also, on the other hand, I do not want to password protect my computer, but every time I restart my computer, I receive an alert asking me to register a password. The alert says if I don't enter a password, I won't be asked again. However, I keep getting asked. These are not major problems, just annoying, because I must keep looking up my log in info, although I have one ID and password committed to memory by now. I hope someone can help. Thanx in advance.

Hi,
Not logging to Windows may be causing the other password problem. Put in a username but no password to the Windows logon prompt, then click OK (not cancel.) See: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=152104 for more information. Hope this helps, Don -- MVP IE/OE Please reply to the newsgroup so that others may participate.
