ndiswrapper corrupts checkgmail - password always requested at start-up

[Paul Weiss]

After I installed ndiswrapper checkgmail always asks for the password at start-up, even if the password is saved. This bug occurs in Ubuntu 8.10 32/64 bit. The funny thing is that when you do a Ctrl-Alt-Esc, the password remains saved. As soon as you uninstall ndiswrapper the password is saved even after a full boot-up. I tried to delete the checkgmail preferences file to see if the new created one would fix the problem, but no luck.
