HELP! The passwords on my Outlook accounts are not remembered.

[marcsan...@yahoo.com]

I maintain several Outlook client PC's, but one of them has a weird
problem. It won't remember the passwords for the incoming and outgoing
servers.

The PC is a fairly new HP (about 2 years old) running XP Home. Both XP
and Office are up-to-date with updates from the Windows Update site.
We're using Office 2000 Premium. Also have up-to-date Sophos
anti-virus software.

PROBLEM: I go to ACCOUNT --> PROPERTIES --> SERVERS and I enter the
username and password for the incoming server and click "remember
password", then click "apply". Then I click "server requires
authentication" and enter the username and password for the outgoing
server, and click "OK", then "OK" again.

However, when I exit the properties screen and come back again, both of
the passwords have been blanked out.

I also tried "Repair Office", but that didn't help.

Anyone have any ideas?
