Enter Network Password

Using Outlook 2002, whenever I hit the "Send/Receive" button, it asks me to
"Enter Network Passord" multiple times. I am using Hostway as a server.
They said to remove my "e-mail accounts" and then add them again, but that
does nothing. Please advise. Thanks.

First, I can't believe that the only way to cure this problem is to edit the
Registry. This is difficult for me to stomach since I am not that familiar
with the software. I did try it, and it did not allow me to delete the
Protected Storage System Provider. I got an error message. Any suggestions?

By the number of postings, this seems to be a wide spread problem. Why
hasn't Microsoft addressed it?

The instructions require me to use regedit32. I don't have that program. I
did try it again with regedit and it finally deleted the Protected Storage
System Provider. Then I followed the instructions and re-entered my
password. By the "Enter Network Password" screen still comes up every 8
seconds. Help .... anyone?
