I cannot get my dial-up connection to save my password. I can check the box, but when I go to dial in again I have to put my password in again. I just won't cache my password.

Buck,
Resetting your passwords almost never fails.

1. Go to C:\Windows
Delete all .pwl files

2. Open system.ini
Delete all lines under
[Password Lists]

3. Go to ControlPanel>Network
Choose Windows Logon as Primary Login

Reboot

You should now get the login box one last time. Type your name and password, or just click OK for no password.

Now right-click on InternetExplorer on the desktop, choose properties, click the Connections tab, highlight your dial-up connection and choose the Settings button. Input your dial-up password here.


Or try this information from Microsoft. In Internet Explorer, choose Help>Online Support, click the Searchable Knowledge Base, choose Specify an artice ID number and enter the following numbers:


Dial-Up Networking Password Is Not Saved: Q148925
Save Password Check Box Is Unavailable: Q137361

If all else fails, try re-creating the Dial-Up Networking connection.
