That same section/feature is the culprit of the lockout bug in a domain
setting:
If you have a saved password to your DC, then "stupid" XP does not
update this saved password when you change your password. So Mr. Windows
2000/XP will be try this saved password 10 times in a row, then
eventually lock itself out. The only way I have found around it (besides
group policy to disable saving passwords || not force password change),
is to let everyone know to check this Manage Passwords section before
changing their password.

That did it. I had tried Dan's suggestion earlier with no luck.
Thank you Jonathon,
Tim

If not there, then try:
Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Advanced -> Manage Passwords
(different if user is not local admin though -- there is some small
hyperlink they need to click when they get to User Accounts)

That information is saved on the computer itself. In IE7, go to
Tools->Delete Browsing History->Passwords to clear that information out
of IE.

I have a slightly strange situation and I am sure the solution is simple
but I am missing it.
One of my users got prompted for a username/password from the ISA. They
gave it a different username/password than the one used to log them onto
the workstation (they used another user's credentials that they happened
to know) They then choose the option to save that username and
password. From that point on everything they are going to is being
logged as the wrong user.
I have logged the user off and back on but it still uses the cached
login information. If I disallow access to the "wrong" user they are
denied access to the Internet. I don't seem to be able to force another
username/password prompt. Does anyone have an idea how to clear this
saved information?
Thanks
Tim
