Unlock Keyring comes up on every website

Asked by Aaron Remley

Every time I go to a website a box comes up as:

Unlock Keyring

Enter password for keyring 'Default' to unlock

An application wants access to the keyring 'Default' but it is locked.

Password _____________________

Details:

Cancel OK

Note: I have Ubuntu 11.04 and cannot locate a way to access Terminal, so need steps to take to clear the above error.

Set a blank keyring password and you won't get bothered is a good answer, but I don't know how to reset the "keyring password" for Ubuntu 11.04.

Would you please send me the steps to do so?

Best Regards,

Aaron

Nobody is born knowing, you could have researched this yourself and got an answer faster. You would have found guides like this:
