Outlook 2007 has problem with my hotmail accounts Only on Windows 7

Every time I start Outlook and click on Send/Receive, it asks for the username and password for my hotmail accounts only.
The window that pops up already has the password typed in as I have selected it to remember the password.
I click OK and the window pops up again. I have to click OK 3 or 4 times and it updates the account and does the same thing for every hotmail account.

I have Outlook 2007 on the same machine on Vista and it never does this. Send and Receive runs without popping up any windows to ask for passwords.

Is this a bug in Windows 7, or a setting in Windows 7 I need to fix or what?

Thanks

Do you have the outlook connector installed?

No, I do not have it installed.
But, I do not have it installed on Vista either, which works fine.

My hotmail accounts are very old. If I am not mistaken, the old accounts work fine without the connector.

I have two accounts one old and one new. They work better with connectoer. Try it. ;)

It works, Thanks!
I wonder why Vista does not need it.
