Why does it still say 'unread messages' when I've already read and deleted
the messages?

How can I get rid of that on my log on screen?

Thank you

Download TweakUI from

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp

and when installed go to Start >All Programs>Powertoys for WindowsXP >Tweak
UI - then go to
Logon>Unread Mail - disable it in the right hand pane.
(It also does a lot more)

Otherwise the Unread Mail can be disabled via the Registry - Start > Run >
regedit > OK and navigate to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\UnreadMail\[Youremailaddress],
double click on 'MessageCount' - in the right hand pane - and change the
value to 0(Zero).

This screen may be displayed after loading from the disk cache, or Internet
Temp files.

You need to refresh the screen probably to get rid of this info.

Is there a way to fix this problem, rather than turning it off?
