dial up connection does not remember password

I have been using a dial up connection on a
Win98SE/Outlook Express 6/Internet Explorer setup without
getting this problem. I have just bought a new compter
with Win2000/ Outlook Express 6/ Internet Explorer setup.
But now the dialup connection does not remember my
password when asked to do so. It supplies a password that
is much longer. How can I force it to remember?

Check if it works and don't worry about the dots you see: the length of the
password is faked for security reasons.
