My Hotmail account on my laptop opens with my password box already loaded with my 'remembered' password, which makes it insecure as it is easy for some of my family/friends to work out the email address and thereby gain access to my messages

The laptop itself is password protected but how do I remove the remembered Hotmail password ?

Firefox and Windows 7.

What browser are you using?
It's my guess that at some stage you have 'agreed' to your browser remembering your password.

Yes, Hans, I probably did, but that doesn't help me.

I'm using Mozilla Firefox as stated.

Now that I know what Browser you are using, this is what you need to do. :-

Open Firefox and select Tools. Then click, Options > Security > Saved Passwords > Show Passwords > Yes. Click and Highlight your Hotmail password, then click Remove.

That should sort-out matters. If Not, please post further.
