I have XP Pro,MSN, IE6, cable modem. Recently this has been happening: when I fire up the "puter and click the Explorer icon to get online I am taken to the MSN sign in page and I have to sign in. I click the button to save my add'y & password but it doesn't save the info., and I have to sign in every time. I have poked around in the firewall ( the XP pro firewall) settings and looked in the internet settings areas and haven't seen anything that specifically relates to this situation. I have tried re-setting my home page hoping that that would somehow re-set the info...but no luck. I have looked under Control Panel and examined the other areas that might relate to these setting but haven't seen anything that jumps out at me. Am I missing something that's right in front of me? I e-mailed MSN but haven't heard back yet so I wanted to run this by here. Is there a registry entry that I have accidentally deleted whenever I do some registry cleaning using the tool that is built into the registry cleaner program ( RegCleaner 4.3 by Juoni Vuorio)? I probably did something that caused this change ..it was working just fine until recently.. Oh, btw...I have eTrust AV, Spybot-SD, SpywareBlaster,SpywareGuard, AdAware,AdWareAlert, ...all are up to date and used regularly. Thanks...
