So how do I get rid of the prompt on the desktop for a password for the 
Jabber account every time I start up KDE? What is Jabber Account 
Credentials Validation failure dialog I get when I get the password 
wrong because I don't know what it is, that re-prompts for the password?
Given that I have never seen Jabber before I am assuming it is new with 
F21, is that the case?

Steve
