How to remove the stored password for a Network Place?

Symptom

Unable to remove the stored password for a Network place ??????

check this out >>>>>>>>>

Removing the stored password manually

First see if this helps: Using Manage Network Passwords dialog. If the network location is not listed in the Manage Network Passwords dialog, proceed further, to the manual removal routine:

The password is stored in the Protected Storage area in the XP registry. To remove the stored password for the Network location, follow these instructions:

> Click Start, Run and type REGEDIT and press Enter
> Navigate to the following key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Protected Storage System Provider \ <SID for your Account>

> Assign your user account Full Permission for this key, and sub-keys.

> Once done, press F5 key to refresh the registry view.

> Locate the appropriate sub-key which contains the MS IE FTP Passwords.

> Once you locate the correct sub-key, backup the key to a REG file

> Delete the key which contains the user name & password for that Network location
> Now, Undo the Permissions settings done in Step 3 above

> Close Registry Editor

Hint: Look for the MS IE FTP Passwords Display String value in the right-pane for each sub-key. The password may be stored here: (The <SID> string varies)

HKCU \ Software \ Microsoft \ Protected Storage System Provider \ <SID> \ Data \ 5e7e8100-9138-11d1-945a-00c04fc308ff \ 00000000-0000-00 00-0000-000000000000
