Well I think I am about to give up on this and reload windows. I have been
pounding my head for months now. I even tried uninstalling live messenger and
running two differenet registry cleaners. I reloaded it this morning and it
still won't remember the password.
What the heck is with this site?? I get an email notification and out of 30+
tries it keeps taking me to a blank page. One time it worked to make my last
post. This time I had to search through my history to find it.
