Internet connection wizard - Error Message Annoyance

I wanted to setup another connection using Internet connection wizard,
and see if that would improve my modem speed. When I run ICW I get
the following error message.

"Internet connection wizard is unable to continue because password
caching has been disabled. Contact your system administrator to have
this setting enabled, then restart Internet connection wizard."

How the heck do I enable this password caching? I don t recall ever
disabling it in the first place, but I suppose this is something my
ISP had me do, one of the last times they screwed up my settings.

Please advise me how to change this setting. This is a home computer,
there is no "system administrator" except myself.

Thanks
Dan

Not the same problem but it looks like the solution.

In the Network applet, you need to install Microsoft Family Logon and/or
Client for Microsoft Networks. Let us know if it works, OK?
