From your main Messenger window, go to Tools>Options, then click the

"General" link on the left hand side, uncheck the box stating
"Auntomatically run..." It is the first checkbox.

I have recently set up Windows Messenger on my computer.

When I signed in for the first time, I entered my hotmail email address
and
password and ticked the box "Sign me in automatically"

Now everytime I start Windows Messenger it obviously signs me in
automatically.

However, on reflection and for security purposes, I would like to revert
back to having to enter my email address and password, or at least my
password, when I start Windows Messenger.

Can anyone tell me how to do this please.

I am running Windows XP Home SP2 and Windows Messenger Version 4.7.3001
