I hope I explain this one right but whilst using MSN Messenger, the bit where you either select the option to log in as the current user or to log in as a different user, if you click on the different user option, it presents you with a drop down menu of any other users that has logged into MSN Messenger on your PC, (if that makes sense lol) my question is I've got a little list of people that have used my MSN Messenger but I would like to remove them from the drop down menu.

Does anyone know of a way to do this. I presume it might be sommat within the registry but couldn't see anything on the tools bit on MSN Messenger.

Any help is gratefully appreciated as always.

Well further investigation has found the answer. For those who don't know how to do it....

click the Start button -> click Run... -> type control userpasswords2 -> hit Enter or click OK -> click Advanced tab -> select Manage Passwords -> delete all Passport entries -> click OK/Apply.

Marv!
