Save your time and CPU time on the useless Tweak UI. All
it does is what you can do yourself with a little patience
and learning. The unread mail notification is an easy
example of what you can do yourself. To stop "unread Mail"
notification go>start\run and type in regedit and click ok
or hit enter on your key board. Now click the + signs
beside the following entries in this order.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion
\UnreadMail Now right click UnreadMail and then click
permissions and set each account that you don't want to
get an unread mail message on to deny. If you just want to
clear the existing count then double click Message Expiry
Days and then click modify and set to 0. Easy isn't it,
and without wasting space with the Tweak User Interface.
Good luck.

On the contrary, TweakUI is an extremely useful program which I
recommend to everyone.

Although thahat's absolutely true, it's a very poor reason for
not using TweakUI. There's nothing TweakUI can do that can't be
done without it, but most of those things require registry
editing without TweakUI. Using TweakUI to do something instead of
editing the registry directly is both far easier and far safer.

Thanks for all the tips, actually deleting the MSN mail
address from the registry was/is the preferred way to go.
I don't want that account. I was in regedit last night
but couldn't find it. (searched for msn but that was
taking too long!)

As for Tweak UI, I'll download it and see what else it
has to offer.

Thank you both !!
