When I boot into my PC, under my login name it says 1 unread message. When I
move cursor on that it says my hotmail email address has 1 unread message. I
have read all the messages in my hotmail account. Why is it still telling me
that I have 1 unread message? How do I remove that?

Export and delete the following registry keys:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\UnreadMail\[Your
E-Mail Address]\Message Count

Use Tweak UI (available from Microsoft). In the left column, select "Logon"
and expand it. Then select "Unread Mail" and uncheck "Show unread mail on
Welcome screen"
