Nakkoush - MSN Messenger allows you to set up one integrated passport id(which can automatically sign you into messenger at logon) for each Windows User Account in Windows XP. Windows XP will also save any additional MSN Id's you sign in with, but not the password. If you are using a previous version of Windows such as ME or 98, i believe MSN will only save the last used address.

There is no known software or patches available to allow what you are asking. I don't think it would be a very useful feature for most as it would create too much of a security risk. If you save the username with password for each account, anyone who gains access to your computer will also have access to all of your accounts. Is there a certain reason you would need this sort of feature?

It may not be a security risk for you but the reason there is no software like this out there is because:
1. There is no real demand for it.
2. Software can generally not log into more than one account at a time, so how can it automatically log you into more than one account? If you are using XP it saves all ID's you log in under which should be sufficient for most users.
3. The majority of people can just write down there ID and password in a txt file if they have too many to remember. (zipped and encrypted is a good way to store these)
4. As mentioned in last post it is a security risk to MOST users, who do not wish to have there accounts compromised, from others using there PC or any so-called "hackers" who like to hijack accounts.
