i recently bought a 20 inch iMac with Tiger pre-installed. i use netzero dialup to connect to the internet.

i set up a user account for my daughter but gave her access to the apps folder, etc. for some reason, whenever i try to open netzero to connect to the internet, i get a popup asking me to enter my keychain password. this doesn't happen when i am logged in as the admin.

is there anyway to stop this pop-up message EVERYTIME my daughter tries to connect to the internet?

thanks.

Try having her change her user's password (from within her account). If a user's password is changed from an admin account, the keychain password won't change along with it and the user won't be able to auto-authenticate when she logs in.
