How to deactivate XP automatic popup legends

[Alvaro de la Ossa]

I have been looking around in the available XP help
sources related to customizing the user interface, to
find out how to deactivate the automatic popup
help/descriptive messages that appear wherever you point
your mouse and/or whenever a menu item is highlighted. If
someone knows how to do this, I'd appreciate your advice.
Thanks!

Alvaro.
