Where are you double-clicking? What application, what are you storing?

The information is provided "as is", it is suggested you research for
yourself before you take any advice - you are the one ultimately
responsible for your actions/problems/solutions. Know what you are
getting into before you jump in with both feet.

And just in case you're talking about MSN or other things clear out your
Passport info:

Start
Press Run
Type "control userpasswords2" without the quotes
Hit Enter
Click the second tab over
Highlight and delete any accounts you don't want
