Delete your Microsoft .NET Passport information from your computer

To delete your Microsoft .NET Passport information from your computer

When you click the Sign me in automatically check box when signing in to .NET Messenger Service, your .NET Passport name and password are stored on your computer. This allows Windows Messenger to sign you in automatically. You can delete this information to prevent being signed in automatically.

On Windows XP Professional:

1. Click the Start button, click Control Panel, and then click User Accounts.
2. Click the Advanced tab, and then click Manage Passwords.
