Hi there,

It worked! Just one more question, is there any way of
stopping Windows from automatically logging me in when I
logon to my Windows account, but still keep the
association in MSN Messenger(i.e. just click the button
and it logs on)? Or would I need a third party program
like Trillian to do that?

Thanks,

Nick
