Outlook 2007 prompts me for saved Hotmail password

I'm using Outlook 2007 to access my Hotmail via HTTP.
1. O'07 stores the password without problem, however, everytime I restart XP
Pro SP2 it'll prompt me with the Hotmail password box which it already
filled and I just have to press <Enter>... Why? If it remembers the
password, why does it prompt and how do I stop it?
2. Whilst O'07 is synchronising with Hotmail I can do nothing. In Outlook
Express I could look at previously sync email or even start writing a new
one, but O'07 doesn't allow me this - all I see is its banner... Is there a
way to let O'07 allow me to interact before Synchronization is complete?
 
2. Nope. There is an update to outlook that might help (look for it on
Microsoft.com/office - under downloads). Otherwise, a smaller inbox to sync
will help.

What about under Vista. I am having the repeated password prompt issue under
Vista (two different machines) with Outlook 2007. I WAS having the same
issues under XP until I installed the patch in the article at:

What I am having trouble figuring out is will this fix the same issue under
Vista? I am running Ultimate 32 bit.
