Log On Password Expires in X days


I have two vista machines an old (relatively)one and really new one. On
the new one I am starting to get a message balloon in the notification
area when I log on saying "..password will expire in x days...". I
don't get this on the old one.

How can I stop this message appearing or make the password valid for
infinity?

Cheers

I hope you already have this solved but if not, go to the Control Panel and
look at the User Accounts.

Alternatively you can right click on My computer, Click Manage Click Local Users and Click Users. Right Click on your username and go to properties. Make sure that check box is checked that says password never expires.
