I think my mind is going (HAL 9000). Windows XP and earlier, it's possible to "turn off" the "remember password" checkbox for Hotmail Logon in Outlook Express. Well I was futzing with my wifes NEW Toshiba Portege (no endorsement intended) and now I can't turn the darn thing back on! The "remember password" checkbox is greyed out. I went through all the administrator setting, outlook express and IE settings and I can't find the spot to TURN IT BACK ON. I even did a system restore to a few days earlier but NOOOOOOOOOOOO. I think my mind is going. Where is it? tlonder@comcast.net

This is just a guess, but try this. Go to tools --> Accounts and remove the account. Then enter in a new one with the same settings. When you enter the email address and password, I would think it would give you the option of remembering the password.

If you remember on Bewitched you have to recapture how you did it exactly, see if you can get a recomp of the keystrokes in order; I'll be darned if I know how only that that is how people I paid extrvagant amounts of money to said they did.!
