Hello,

XP has a new feature, text balloons that appear when something happens. I
have it for instance when my laptop connects to a wireless network. I get a
message like: "Connected to MyWlan, signal strength good". I think this is
informatin I could do without. Does anyone managed to set the setting which
disables this feature? It would help me a lot.

Thanks,
Michel
