Hi Bill, >> Second, when I click on the icon in Sys.prefs it asks me for an account name >> and password?
That is the Account Name and Password for your MobileMe Account. If you have never signed up for a MobileMe Account, you DON’T have one. There is nothing to delete if you have never signed up for a MobileMe Account.
