    When XP prompts the usual "Do you want windows to remember this password?" for net logins etc I usually click yes. The problem is it never actually remembers the password. It hasn't happened before on other windows versions I have used. Does anyone know how to rectify this?

    Could just be an issue with IE. Try disabling and re-enabling the feature (or even check if it is enabled properly)

    Go to IE Tools/Internet Options/Content and click on 'Auto Complete'. There are options in there to remember searches, etc... as well as usernames and passwords. See if they are set properly and maybe clear the current forms and passwords cache. That's all i got :P
