Everybody in my family has their own hotmail address. That's what hotmail is for, right?

When I got into hotmail tonight it assumed I was my daughter, who had been on last. When I clicked "change user" and entered my nick, I was horrified to see that my password self-entered, which it naturally doesn't do normally. I don't need to go into detail about the fuss that could cause http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/frown.gif Does anybody know how to fix it? (Yes, I know, I have a pprune address too.)

You probably need to load the MS password list editor and then run the program and edit it accordingly.

If you're using MS Internet Explorer click on "tools" at the top, then "internet options", select the "content" tab then "auto complete". If you now click on "clear passwords", hey presto, all gone.
Whilst you're there click on "clear forms" too. If you don't want others to see what you've been looking at on the net, select the "general" tab and both "clear history" and "delete temporary files" will erase your viewing history. Of course if you're a strictly business user this won't be necessary, will it?

Cheers
