Thanks for that new profile suggestion.

I tried it, created a new profile (which made me brand new PST files and of course the Outlook layout went back to default, so I know its a brand new & empty profile).

However the problem is STILL THERE. I still am asked for my POP3 password even though I've told it to save.

Hmm. I think a reinstall of XP coming on unless anyone can think of anything else?


Thanks.

Oh yes- I've tried that too, a while back. That also doesn't work.

You mean reinstalling a full WinXP doesn't work??? (not just Office)?

I actually have Vista SP1 and did do a complete system recovery based on other problems, and the password prompt began immediately after reinstalling Office 07. My daughter has the same problem on another computer.

Starting Outlook in Safemode doesn't make a difference either?

Have you tried deleting the registry key, again, after that create a new Profile in Outlook and start Outlook with the new Profile. Repeating the steps you took earlier to be sure it is a fresh profile.

You will need to input your password at least once, click the Send/Receive button several times after that to Test for the Password Prompt.
