At the log on screen it says under my profile that I have
x amount of programs running etc. and also that I have
three new e-mails for a specific e-mail address. When I
check Outlook I cleary don't.

I wonder am I missing something or is there a problem
with the log on screen.

Any help with this would be great.

Thanks

Kevin

P.S. I am running XP Home and Outlook Express.
