There is a curious thing happening as far as IE 6 and passport goes that I
hope someone could explain. When using IE 6 or a piggyback like Avant or
Maxthon, I have to sign into passport every time I go to MSN. com or Hotmail
or any other site requiring Passport. I have found however that if I use
Opera or Firefox that the sign in is remember as I always check and intend.
I have experimented with several browsers and have decided that I would like
to use IE 6 or a piggyback browser generally. This is however an odd
situation that I have run into. I can't think of anything I could be doing
to keep from staying signed into passport when using IE 6. Maybe I am
missing something. Would appreciate any information that someone might have
about this problem.

Thanks in advance,
Gregg

You can increase your Hotmail Sign-In expiration to as much as 24 hours:
www.hotmail.com > Options > Personal Options > Session Expiration.

Your .NET Passport Sign-In should reflect this AFAIK.
