This fix applies to Outlook and other programs that store passwords
in the Protected Storage System Provider sub-branch of the Registry.
It also corrects some issues with Internet Explorer and Autocomplete.

|I cannot seem to get OE to remember account passwords. Does anyone know the cause and or cure for this?
|
| It allows me to select the REMEMBER PASSWORD box, afterword it allows me to enter a password as well. I 
click APPLY, hit SEND AND RECIEVE MAIL and up pops a dialogue box asking for the password. Afterword, it will 
check w/o asking until I close and reload OE and then it starts all over even though the REMEMBER PASSWORD box 
is still checked. I did notice that the password field is complete blank though, no characters of any kind.

| I've reinstalled windows to no avail.... Any clues??

| Thanks!
