39338 2002-03-15 23:36:00 Others have used my computer to access hotmail & I would like to delete their names from the hotmail sign -in drop down window. I have tried highlighting and right mouse button delete. With no success. I run Win 98 2nd ed. Guest (0)

Unfortunately I think it would require some tinkering in the registry and some configuration files to remove individual items, however, you can remove all of them (then type yours back in next time you access hotmail), buy wiping the Autocomplete forms.

I'm not in windows at the moment, but I think you can find autocomplete by doing this:

Open IE,
Click tools,
Click internet options,
Select (one of the tabs at the top, I think it's something cryptic like security, and it's about the third on in from the left).
Then click 'clear forms'.

When you go back to hotmail, you will have to type your name in again, but then yours willk be the only on present.

Hope that helps,

Erin
