User log-on mail message
Hi,
My XP has seem to have gotten "12 unread mail messages" stuck on my User Log-On screen. It is refering to a hotmail account that is not programmed to be my main email source (I only check it every so often). It has never acknowledged it before. And BTW, there are not 12 messages!!! Can anyone help? |
