    Could you please advise on how to clear the pull down email addresses for the .net messenger services screen. All the email addresses are past email addresses that I have had. I have no need for them now.

    Thanks.

    Dolphin :)

    You need to clear your auto-complete cache. You can do it like this:

    In Internet Explorer go to Tools-Internet Options

    (yes you can also use Internet Options icon in Control Panel instead)

    Go the the Content tab

    Click the Auto Complete button

    IN there you can Clear Forms and Clear Passwords. If you clear both you will have cleared all previously typed things in IE and in the auto-complete cache.
    Net PAssport being web based and mostly used in the browser uses the auto complete cache like any other web page.

    Note: Before you clear passwords, make sure you remember any passwords for pages you usually use auto complete to log into.
