Open ra2.ini and under [Multiplayer], check to see if the following line is there
StoreNick=yes
If not, add it.

RegSetValueExA:
(nick and pass)
(locale)
RegQueryValueExA:
(nick and pass)
This way also normal users on Vista/7 can save their logins. On a multi-user system the nicks won't be shared anymore.
Replace your existing WOLAPI.dll with this one: http://www.mediafire.com/?y0cbw26a3bu0fg3 (you may want to back-up your old one before though).
Note that if you had any logins saved, you'll have to re-enter them.

But seriously, if he understood that, I don't think he'll be asking for any computer-related help!

RA2 doesn't give a damn about the StoreNick value, in fact it doesn't even know about it. That's a TS thing. A relict. If you do believe RA2 uses StoreNick, then show some proof instead pls.
These are all the boolean values read from the MultiPlayer section of ra2.ini. For full reference see attached text file.0050F410 Call to game.0050F410 from game.0066F4D7
007DBCE4 Arg1 = ASCII "MultiPlayer"
007DFE18 Arg2 = ASCII "SendDelay"

First parameter is the section, second key name, third is actually the default value (the result is returned), duh. For some values seemingly bogus integers/pointers are passed as default. The file handle is held somewhere globally.

All I know is that whatever firework said to check, it was found to be missing. I insert what he suggests and hey presto it works.RA2 doesn't give a damn about the StoreNick value, in fact it doesn't even know about it. That's a TS thing. A relict. If you do believe RA2 uses StoreNick, then show some proof instead pls.

Wow, how do you know all this? All I remember from my assembly classes in computer school is ASCII code for 'A' = 65 (decimal) .These are all the boolean values read from the MultiPlayer section of ra2.ini. For full reference see attached text file.
Open your debugger in XP, maybe you'll see something different.

Newsflash - there's no reference to "StoreNick" in RA2s code unlike TS'. XP wouldn't change thatOpen your debugger in XP, maybe you'll see something different.
