| 122665 | 2003-02-20 22:18:00 | Hi all, My system got trushed with a virus, did all sorts of weird stuff including changing my ISP dialup password. Don't know what the password was but it was about twice as long as the original password, strange thing is it still work with my ISP account! Replaced the HDD and setup up with win2k, went through and setup my internet connection.... what do you know but somehow that long password is back! Even if I overwrite and save the password the long version always comes back. Any idea's, has it been writin to the bios?? Thanks Dave |

BTW posting email addy is just begging for spammers to spam your email account. |
