WINXP wont hold password

[inquiring]

I have WIN XP HOME on my AMD/ABIT rig.
When I enter dial up connection I see an unknown password that appears and the re-appears each time I enter DIAL UP CONNECTION with my 56K modem.
I type in my authentic pw and it fails to appear the next time (even after I chose SAVE PASSWORD)I enter DIAL UP CONNECTION--how/where do I go in WIN XP HOME to retain my authentic password when I choose SAVE PASSWORD and get rid of the mysterious password that appears there?
Thank you.

WinXP does a better job of disguising passwords. Have you tried logging on with the mysterious password?
