    remove former logins on msn messenger? [resolved]

    hi, my pc has, over the past few weeks, been used by a lot of people, and a lot of them have used msn messenger. now whenever i run msn messenger, the combo box with all the emails that have ever logged in on the machine is full with emails, and it is hard to find the few email addresses i use for different purposes in it.

    what i want to do is get rid of all the emails in the combo box.

    i removed msn messenger (6.2) and installed it again, but that didnt get rid of the emails. I searched the registry for the emails, but they werent there, so i presume they are in a file somewhere.

    can anyone tell me how to get rid of these email addresses... please

    Its quite simple really... Go to Start>Run. Then type in: "control userpasswords2" . Then once the User Accounts window appears, click on the advanced tab. Then Manage Passwords. And then select the email u wanna remove and it will remove all logon info of the selected email from your computer. Any doubts feel free to PM me.

    That only works in XP BTW.
    I use Microsoft Visual Basic 2005. (Therefore, most code samples I provide will be based around the .NET Framework v2.0, unless otherwise specified)
