Default Passwords and Identities

I once received some great advice in this forum, on this subject - however, I
cannot find the post that gave me the help. [I recently had to re-image my
computer, and the tweak that I am searching for did not transfer]

I read the related article on this topic:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/IE/...passwords.mspx
Despite installing SP2 for Windows XP, and despite checking the box to
Require A Password, OE6 WILL open to my Default Identity withOUT a password
if I forget to Log Off Identity, and just close down - OR if someone does a
hard powerdown on the computer.

I recall there being another way to assure OE6 always asks for a password
upon opening - maybe involving re-naming a file? Deleting a file?

Anyone recall this tweak?

TIA
