A .NET Passport account is an online service developed by Microsoft, which allows users the ability to authenticate their account ID a single time, and have access to multiple services in different .Net Passport-enabled websites. Obtaining a .Net Passport account can be easily accomplished through a Windows built-in wizard, which walks you through the process. This setup allows users with non-hotmail accounts to successfully establish an account. The setup procedure may vary slightly if the computer used to set up the account is a stand-alone or a client on a domain. In both cases the steps are quick and straightforward. For computers on a domain, select the “Advanced” tab from the “User Accounts” window and click the “.NET Passport Wizard” link. Writer Bio
