can I turn of XP Pro help "bubbles"?
Is there a way to turn off those little beige "help" bubbles? I mean the
ones that that say "new program installed" or "you have unused icons..." I'm using XP Pro. Thanks! Tracy ************************************************** ******************** "I may disagree with what you have to say, but I shall defend to the death your right to say it." Voltaire |
