Even though my son is signed out of MSN Messenger, when I
open up Outlook Express all of his contacts are imported
into my address book. I have already unchecked the box
that says "sign me in automatically". I did not have this
problem on Windows 98 but since I swithced to Windows XP
this keeps happening. He signs out on his log-on in
Messengger, but it doesn't sign him out in Messenger on
my log-on even though I have unchecked automatically sign
me in.

Thanks for your help!!
