Profile creation problem

I've used NS 7.02 Compact for some time. The other day I changed my dial-in password with my ISP. Because I did this I had to change my password for the newsgroups in NS 7.02. After changing the password for the newsgroups, I ran into an old problem: in a newsgroup thread there were no postings made by different posters- only one posting repeated over and over.

So I figured had to make a new profile. I deleted the old profile and made a new one. But NS will not remember the new one-- I always see the old one.

What do I have to do to make a new profile which is permanent and allows me to open NS with that new profile?

Did you delete your old profile using the profile manager? If you bring up the profile manager, how many profiles are listed?

Yes, I did delete the old profile using the NS Profile Manager. But before I read your posting here I uninstalled NS 7.02 Compact. [I uninstalled because I figured something was wrong or still in the Windows Registry.] Now I'll just re-install NS 7.02 Compact. [But before I do that should I delete certain entries in the Windows Registry, the ones mentioned in the "Netscape Clean Install" info found at http://home.att.net/~cherokee67/ns67cleaninstall.html ?

That might be wise, since you have it uninstalled already. Be sure to back up your profile data (mail, bookmarks, etc). A fresh start can never hurt
