[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of TOM Sent: Wednesday, March 08, 2006 9:24 AM To: ADVANCED-DOTNET@DISCUSS.DEVELOP.COM Subject: [ADVANCED-DOTNET] Help.. disabling "Sign In with Microsoft Passport .NET Network" I was searching the Microsoft website on how to disable a prompt that keeps coming up on my W2K PC every 10 mintues or so wanting me to sign in to my Microsoft Passport account. This window or promt pops up even when I don't have MS IE Explorer running. I don't think I joined the right forum, but maybe someone can help. Although I have a hotmail email address, I don't have Microsoft Money nor plan on needing to log on to my Microsoft Passport account. My computer that is doing this is my work laptop. I think this may have started when I visited the msn Money Central web site. I tried removing all cookies and that did not help? Anyone know how to disable this prompt that keeps coming up. Right now my solution is to just let the popup prompt come up and just leave it there behind my other applications all day. If I close the window, it just comes back in a few minutes.
