Win XP problem

Hey Fellas,

I've noticed that everytime I startup my WinXP machine and I get to my log-on screen, at the password prompt, it allways show "X" amount of emails waiting next to my Log-on name.

I suspect that this is might be related to outlook express but, I can't put my finger on where the problem could exists.
By the way, outlook express is NOT my default email client.

Has anyone seen this problelm?

Thanks,
TB.

I believe thats your hotmail account if you have one?

Yeah, I've got my Hotmail account set-up in outlook express but, how do I address the problem?
Have you had this problem?

Thanks,
TB.

I believe if u have ova 100 emails... it would put an x on it.

AznStyl,

Thanks for your effort but, the "X" actually refers to ANY number; where "X" can be 1 or 100.
I don't literally me "X".

Thanks,
TB

Yes it is a MSN messenger feature. Its not really a problem. The way I address it is by veiwing the e-mails. Do that then the message disappears.

if you dont like it then go to the control panel adn go to user profiles. in there on network passwords remove you passport acciount. this wont deleat it it will just stop xp from logging in automaticly adn getting info like that
