Tony-
Thanks for all the help and from everyone else. Turns out my wife was
running XP Pro. I never had a chance to look at the PC she was using and she
just assumed it was Home. My bad!! Anyway, I learned a lot and just added
the info to my archives. I have two machines that run Pro, and I have never
seen this happen on them. I thought that the default was to have it run the
password reminder, but I never changed it on any of my machines. I did run
the Net Accounts command on several machines to see what it returned. Thanks
again.
Jim

Oddly enough, I didn't even notice that it said Pro in the
subject. I was just going by the text in the message itself.
Jim, I hope you are able to figure it out. Did you try the NET
ACCOUNTS command to see if the expiration still said UNLIMITED? If
it hasn't changed, I would say that definitely means the message is
not coming from Windows, unless something has really screwed up the
Registry. Some really odd behavior can appear if that happens.
