Changing Your User Name
Windows 98/Windows Me
You can follow these instructions for changing your user name in Windows 98 or Windows Me. For assistance with
a different operating system, please see the listing of
documented platforms. If you need further assistance,
please contact our Technical Support department.
From the Windows Desktop, double-click on the My Computer icon. (shown right)
From the My Computer window, double-click on Dial-Up Networking.
Once in the Dial-Up Networking window, you should see an icon labeled as your
CoreComm connection. Double-click on this icon.
In the Connect To window you should see a line labeled User Name with your login name already entered. Click once with the left mouse button immediately to the right of your user name.
Complete your new user name by typing in @core.com. (no spaces) Example: If your user name had previously been john, your new user name should be john@core.com. Your Password and Phone number both remain the same.
 | john@core.com |
After you have made this change, click on the Connect button and your computer will attempt to connect to
CoreComm. Once it finishes the connection process, return to your Desktop and proceed to run your
web browser in the usual manner. The new login name should be saved automatically and from that point you
should be able to connect in the same manner as you have in the past.
