>Hi. Win 98 user. I can get neither Outlook Express nor Eudora to remember my ISP password. Any ideas? I want the computer to log onto my mail client automatically.

Do a Regedit search to find the place where this stuff is stored. I don't have a 98 machine with OE in front of me right now, but something like "Prompt for Password" should be set to 0, it's probably set at 1 now. That's a direct way to fix it, if you're familiar with registry fixes.

Later at a 98 machine:

I'll try this nice UT "update" feature out here. If your OE password is stuck "on" with 98, look in this registry area for the several "Prompt for Password" properties, and alter the settings as noted above:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Account Manager\Accounts\00000001]
