Thinkvantage Password Manager Problems

Using Thinkvantage Password Manager I always get error messages that cause IE7 (or IE6) to shutdown.

The following add-on was running when this problem occured:
Add-on name: tvtpwm_ie_com.dll
Company name: Lenovo (United States) Inc.
Description: Password Manager IE Hook Browser Object
Sending a report to Microsoft doesn't do any good.

Anyone else having problems?

It happened with my T43 too but I haven't seen it for a while now. I think it's because of the Password Manager program. Try using Software Installer to get updates.

I am getting exactly the same problem. I am using a Thinkpad T60 with IE6. I have disabled the IE autofill function as I thought this may be causing a conflict. This did not solve the problem.

Very keen to hear if anyonhas been able to solve this....

Here is my fix, disable Thinkvantage password manager and use Robo Forms instead. No more errors . . .

I used hijackthis to remove the reference to the dll from the IE plugins.

I did this in desperation because I could not find a way to disable it either. I tried disabling it in the system tray, but upon each restart it would enable itself again...

I bought a new Lenovo 3000 N100 Series last week and have been bugged by the same problem since then. Not much support from lenovo. After much research, it looks as if the third party fingerprint recognition software (in my case Omnipass) does not synchronise with the Thinkvantage Manager. lenovo seems to recommend to download the Thinkvantage fingerprint recognition software instead...I have not tried that but seems that might help. The other work around is to

Tools...manage addons....Disable/enable add ons...disable the following addons

CPwmIEBrowserHelper Object (Type Browser Helper Object) file tvtpwm_ie_com.dll
ThinkVantage Password Manager type Browser Extension

This seems to be working good for now!!
