Stuntgp2000 Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 Hi everybody.I've been wondering sometime now about a way of preventing MSN Messenger or Windows Messenger from storing account infos. I hate to see that long list of names when you want to sing in.Is there any registry key or something to do to prevent MSN Messenger from doing that ? Thanks in advance.
