If I was able to use your user network for help, I would have. I get lost and confused trying to use it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need an answer to my problem. Why can't I talk or chat with someone??????? It is still not working even though I got rid of my master password. I it still asks me to put in a master password then the stmp password and will not take anything I give it! Every time I bring up Google of anything it insists I put in these passwords. How can I disable the master password for everything?
