Hi,

This website is awesome!

I can't sign-in automatically to Windows Messenger. When I open the program I click on the hyperlink that says "To sign-in with a different account click here." Then I enter my hotmail address and passport. Then I select (check) "Sign-me in automatically." When I click OK, Messenger logs me in properly. But when I close the program and reopen it I have to sign-in all over again. I sign in by clicking on "Click here to sign in" which appears beneath my hotmail address whenever I start Messenger.

In short, I have to click on "Click here to sign in" rather than being signed in automatically when I open Messenger.

I have Windows XP and Messenger version 4.7.2009. My Internet Explorer security settings are at Medium and I'm using the Windows pre-installed Firewall.

It's a small problem, but I log in and out of Messenger all day long, so it's a real pain for me.

Any ideas? Thanks.

thanks Tazz.
I had uninstalled Windows Messenger myself a while back and downloaded MSN already. Not sure what else to do.
