a few days ago, I downloaded it (MsnMsgr.exe) as well another live program ,
and did not like it, so uninstalled both, and am continuing to use Windows
Messenger (msmsgs.exe - ver 4.7 - (4.7.3001), but evry time I start my
computer up it says my name on the welcome screen like normal but it says I
have * unread e-mail (when highlighted it says ) my hotmail
account name, but I don't use this hotmail and don't want to see this on the
welcome screen.
How do I get rid of this and use what I had before...something in the
registry i need to delete ?
I already deleted everything stating MsnMsgr.exe to try to get rid of it.

thanks

reboot, it still says I have 3 un-read messages for my account.
