    Am I stupid or what...

    In the old versions you could have any default log-in - here it's always "available" - I don't want that.

    Is there a way to change it?

    If not - has anybody got a support email address handy so I can fire off an aggressive email?

    Are you running the beta, or the normal release? I have my beta version auto set to " busy"

    I should be on the normal version now, I used to have the Beta.

    I have to change my status every time I start it up - it's getting on my nerves...

    Edit:

    Ok, by pure accident I figured out how to get there...

    Due to LiveMesh it logs on automatically - you need to abort that process, then you can select your default status.

    If you are a Linux User who use Windows Share beware the new Essential 2011 installs Sign In Assistant by default (No way to remove it) hence bricks SAMBA.
    Only way to solve it is uninstall Essential 2011 and use the old 2009 version and remember to uninstall the sign in assistant.
