Problems with "Automatic sign in"

Hi,

Everytime I log on to messenger I have to manually type
my username & password because the "automatically sign me
in" checkbox does not exist and it is very annoying. I
tried to reinstall the software and did not work. I also
installed the same software in another machine and did
work, so I think it must be a setting in the registry
that is causing me this error. I also followed all the
configuration parameters given by Microsoft for the
Tools/Options parameters. HELP PLEASE!!!

What version of messenger on what version of the OS?

Greetings,

To fix this, download and run this .reg file:
http://messenger.jonathankay.com/dow...lenetcreds.reg
Then reboot and the option should appear.
