First of all Delete all the cookies in Internet Explorer ie Tools > Internet Options > General Tab > Delete Cookies.

You can also manually remove cookies by going into the folder Tools > Internet Options > Settings > View Files ..

When you sign into Hotmail or Passport the email field should be blank. There will be some check-box's underneath the sign-in.

Make sure you choose the one that says

"Always ask for my email address and password" otherwise it will remember the email address and password.

maybe this is it:
Start/Settings/Control Panel Internet Options/Content tab/Autocomplete button. make sure nothing is checked in there...

Hi

I would just try deleting all off-line content - cookies and cache. I would also configure I.E. to delete all stored files when it exits.

Don't be upset by Deepsand's comments. We really appreciate knowing if our advice helped or not. Rating our answers helps us improve and provide better answers in the future.

Good luck

thanks for the feedback the answer by sgt_shultz was a bit okay but that does not stop from storing the email address i also went into registry where i deleted the email address. wht i mean is when i sign in the msn messenger version 7 or any on the windoes xp there is a .net passport dialog box where all the user names are stored under windows 98 this dialog box does not appear. hope this clerifies the question.
