| Hi!
| On the login page for XP it says I have 2 unread mail messages, but I have
| checked any and all email programs where it could be picking this from and
| deleted all inbox messages and cleaned everything I can think of. When I do
| have a new unread message and log off the 2 does not go to 3 so I don't
| think it is really seeing the email. Is there a way to reset this.
| Thanks
