Larry in addition to that, you should be able to just type
in 
the new password and it should tell you something like
"the 
password you entered does not match the previously stored 
password, do you want to change it", and it should
then 
remember the new one.  This depends on the site, some sites
for 
some stupid reason have that disabled.

XP is not asking, it's Internet Explorer that manages 
passwords.
From:

article2/0,1895,1566857,00.asp
"When you enter a user name and password, Internet
Explorer may 
ask if
you want it to remember the password. Click on Yes and it
will
automatically fill in the password next time you enter that 
user name.
But if you check Don't offer to remember any more
passwords, 
then
whether you click on Yes or No, you won't be prompted
again. To 
recover
this feature, launch Internet Options from IE's Tools menu,

select the
Content tab, click on the AutoComplete button, and check
Prompt 
me to
save passwords.

To delete an individual saved password entry, go to the
log-on 
box on a
Web page and double-click. Your saved AutoComplete entries
will 
drop
down. Use the arrow keys to scroll to the one you want to 
delete, and
press the Del key."
