Hi Peter that is very strange. I wonder whether it might be worth you removing Messenger and reinstalling as you wouldn't lose your contacts and perhaps it might solve the problem? Can't think of anything else you could try.

I certainly don't want it running at start up. ----- Original Message ----- From: Carol Pearson To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2007 11:15 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Windows live messenger Peter, In Tools, Options and the General page you can get Live Messenger to log in on startup. Is this what you're looking for? -- Carol carol.pearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter Beasley To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2007 11:11 AM Subject: [access-uk] Windows live messenger I wonder if anyone is experiencing the same as me. When I sign in to live messenger for the first time everyday, I have to enter my details re, e-mail address and password. I check the remember me and remember my password and sign me in automatically. If I sign out of messenger, and then sign in later, I don't have a problem. It is just that first sign in of the day.
