    Can someone explain this to me please.

    I get the idea that the pasport is verification that I have a Hotmail account, so i would sign into it when I go into Hotmail.

    It used to happen when I went into C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start, but seems to have stopped now

    But I can't understand having to sign in when I try to download clipart in MS Word. Why when they have the MS Genuine Validation Tool, is this annoyance still happening. I'm one of those people who get slightly freaked when I'm unexpectedly asked to give passwords for not very apparent reasons (like downloading clipart).

    Is there a way to stay signed in or work around the passport.

    Thanks
