I recently visited my web mail site, and when Windows asked if I wanted to
save my password, I responded YES instead of no. Now, anyone can access my
mail account from this machine.

Someone suggested I type rundll32.exe keymgr.dll, KRShowKeyMgr in the RUN
box, but it brings up an empty list (i.e., doesn't show the saved website
password).

Can anyone tell me how to remove this stored password?

Thanks for your help.

Ok -- I disocovered the answer. For those who don't--and may wish to--know,
do the following:

- Go to the relevant site
- Begin typing your username where you normally would
- When the drop-down list appears, highlight your username, but don't click
it
- Press the DEL key on the keyboard

Windows will remind you there is a password stored for this user, and will
confirm the deletion.
