            Dim a As New System.IO.StreamWriter("C:\LoginInfo\" + TextBox1.Text.ToLower + "\Username.txt")
            a.WriteLine(TextBox1.Text.ToLower)
            a.Close()

            Dim b As New System.IO.StreamWriter("C:\LoginInfo\" + TextBox1.Text.ToLower + "\Password.txt")
            b.WriteLine(TextBox2.Text.ToLower)
            b.Close()

            sa = a.ReadLine()

        Catch ex As Exception
            MsgBox("Error - " + ex.Message)

Seems a bit messy using a directory per user like that.

I'd do it all in one text file, maybe having each users' details per line with a seperator between the username/password values.
