WLM won't auto-sign in...

I have a problem with WLM, it no longer signs in by itself.

WLM, Version 2009 (Build 14.0.8064.206), on Windows XP Pro, SP3, fully
up-to-date.

On the Sign In tab in Options, I have unchecked, saved, then gone back
in and re-checked and saved, the "Allow automatic sign in when connected
to the Internet".

A pic of the pertinent Options tabs are here...

When I start WLM, it just goes to the Sign In window and I have to click
the "Sign in" button...

Why? Is there a way I can fix this so it signs in automatically when
WLM is started? (It always used to!)

Have you recently installed IE8 and Silverlight?

If you did, try removing both of them then try again.

Thanks,
