| | WLM 2009 not automatically signing into mail like it should I'm using WLM 2009, and even though i have the option unchecked to "Ask for my password when I go to Hotmail and other websites that require a Windows Live ID", it does not automatically sign me in when i click on the "Open your e-mail inbox" mail icon on the WLM main page. My account is an "@msn.com" account, not a "@hotmail.com" or "@live.com" account so maybe that's the problem? Known issue? Any fix? |

| | Re: WLM 2009 not automatically signing into mail like it should Well, it's working right on my 32-bit XP Home SP3 machine with WLM 2009 and IE8 RC1, but it's not working on my Vista Business 32-bit SP2 beta with WLM 2009 and IE8 RC1. Maybe it's just something having to do with Vista, or the SP2 beta version of Vista, or the release candidate of IE8 on the Vista machine.
