Disable Automatically Signing in Programmatically?

Does anybody know how I can disable signing into MSN Messenger automatically, but by doing it programmatically?

The setting for that is a registry key (if I remember correctly). Search the registry (or look on the internet for people who've done this before) and write to that key.

Yeah thats the thing, I can't figure it out, I have clicked sign in automatically, then I have exported the whole registry to a .txt file, then I unclick "sign-in automatically", and then export it as a .txt file, and I compare the two with Windiff, and nothing has happened. Also, I have deleted the whole MSN Messenger folder in the registry and then restarted my computer, and it still signs in automatically. If someone could help me find this out it would be helpful. Any ideas?

I don't understand where else the info could be stored other than the registry? Maybe in a file? If so is there a way I could check the whole computer for differences after checking/unchecking "Sign Me In Automatically"? Or maybe I need to restart my computer after unchecking it, I don't know...What should I do?

Is there a way I can check my computer (everything) for changes after enabling/disabling signing in automatically?

the key:

Code:

---

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\AppSettings

---

on my pc, these are the values i can set this key to accomplish what you intend to do. make some checks, i am not sure if these are the same on other pc's as well.

Code:

---

hex:46,02,02,00 (do not log in)
hex:46,06,02,00 (log in automatically)

---

cheers,

wc.

ps: messenger v.7.0

Do you know how I can do this with 7.5? Thanks by the way.

I rebooted, and msn messenger 7.5 started when windows did, but it still signed me in automatically.

Oh, and I changed it to the one that said "don't sign in"

Ok, for MSN Messenger 7.5, I put this in:

46,06,02,00

And it worked, it didn't sign me in automatically, but how can I make it so MSN Messenger forgets the account password? Thanks.
