I am trying to find a way to delete a stored email address in my MSN Messenger sign in screen. I've emptied temporary internet files, saved passwords & deleted cookies & cleared history, nothing I have tried has erased the email address from the drop down list. I am using MSN Messenger version 6.1. Any suggestions? Thanks!

The site that sramesh2k posts above has some excellent information; some of which repeats what I've stated earlier and goes into additional detail and accesses via Control Panel versus right-click on My Computer icon and choosing Manage (a quicker process); one example Type "Control Userpasswords2" in RUN box > Advanced > "Manage Passwords"

I have a question that I am hoping someone can help with. Its a log in issue with Microsoft NET Passport. When i try to log in to some sites mostly MSN help sites I klick on the sign in button the screen flashes and nothing happens no log in. When I try to log into the zone.com I get an error page that reads
You have reached this page due to errors in your authentication.
You may choose among the following Zone sites to continue.
I was trying to play a game on Zone.com.
I was trying to play a game in MSN Messenger.
I was trying to buy a game.
I don’t know, or none of the above.
This is a 3 month old Dell Dimension 8300 with a 2.8 mghz 1 gig of Ram running windows XP with the MacAfee security suite with anti spam and and privacy service disabled. Firewall is set to Medium Standard. Cookies are enabled in the browser. I have run scans for Virus coming up negative. System is linked through a switch to a Cable Modem 3 other PC share the switch and each is on an individual IP. This is acting like a possible virus because when I try to link to Help on the verious Net Passport sites I am getting messages like page is not available or technical difficulties try again etc I ran the online scan at MacAfee and also came up clean. What am I missing here? Any suggestions would be much appreciated

Oh yes the passport log in works from any other computer others do run Windows 98 and 2000 and use Zone Alarm Firewall.
Sounds like a security issue/setting to me. WinXP I find is picky with security. I had a similar problem. Try changing your IE Security setting to Medium-Low by clicking on Tools>Internet Options>Security>then drag the bar up towards Medium Low>Apply>OK. Also, do you have any pop up blockers such as Google because sometimes this can affect a web page loading? Good Luck! MaryFush :~)

Hi. I am a bit unclear about your problem. Is WindowsUpdate current? Why are you trying to delete a stored email address? Have you checked with your version HELP file for details? Is your .net passport the problem? This may be of help to you. Have you tried the Customize option? This includes a guided "Tour" for your version with detail and how tos:

This is VERY important and a Security alert just out and includes Update/patches for your version:

If your query is more technical in nature, more below:
Microsoft has released security bulletin MS04-010. The security bulletin contains all the relevant information about the security patch for Microsoft MSN Messenger 6.0 and MSN Messenger 6.1, including file manifest information and deployment options.
