Windows 7 - Live Sync Sign In Security

Asked By Rol

Why does Live Sync not offer similar options as Live Messenger for security?

Messenger offers to "Always ask me for my password when checking Hotmail or
opening other Microsoft Passport enabled Web pages."  Live Sync does not.

I need to sync my home computer with my work computer.  If I go online with
Live Sync at home and than leave for work, anybody could get into my Windows
Live Account, including Live Mail.  Just on the "Sync Website" and you have
all options available.  How can I disable this without loosing access to my
home computer when at work?  I don't need my kids to have access to my
personal emails.

Thanks for all the help

Disable the appropriate "Remember me" options for the Live ID associated
with your Synch account.

How about using a different Live account for WLS?

cannot access WINDOWS UPDATE successfully . . . keeps soliciting New!Get Microsoft Update today! Windows 7 I am running Windows XP SP3 Home Edition on 1 of 4 PC's and it is been updated through early April 2011. Prior to this, accessing Windows Updates (via http: / / www.update.microsoft.com / windowsupdate / v6 / default.aspx?ln = en-us) worked to understand why. Recently, around the middle of April 2011, each time I went to Windows Update, the page initially appears and I can briefly see the 2 buttons (of which my PC running XP SP3 Home Edition because my other 3 PC's, all running Windows XP SP3 Professional with Internet Explorer 6 are having no problems with Windows Update. This is also why I prefer not upgrading to Internet Explorer 8 on my Edition. Because my 3 PC's running XP Professional XP3 are not having problems accessing Windows Update with Internet Explorer 6, it seem reasonable to conclude that this is an XP
