I have the remember passwords options set on my XP and
they have always worked. This is in IE6. Now for some
reason, it asks me if I want to remember this password
and I say yes, but the next time I enter my ID it asks me
again, but doesn't remember. It does this on anything.
Don't understand what I may have done to screw this up.
 
Outlook Express keeps prompting for your password - Fix

This fix also applies to Outlook, other programs that store passwords
in the Protected Storage System Provider sub-branch of the Registry.
It also corrects some issues with Internet Explorer and AutoComplete.
