The 2.2.0 version includes an option for Secure Domain Login support. 
This is accomplished by installing a windows credentials provider on 
Windows Vista/7. If you don't want that option, you can re-install the 
client and uncheck the credentials provider to prevent the component 
from being installed. I'm not sure why its being presented by default if 
you didn't manually select during the Login process. I'll have a look at 
that before we do the next beta release.
