A month or so ago I install TB 2 and later uninstalled it. However when
I boot up into Windows XP I _still_ get on the XP login page a message
that I have 1 or 2 unread messages, something that I believe started
showing when I installed TB. Even though TB is long gone, I still get
the message on the XP login screen about messages waiting to be read.

How do I get rid of what I think is a remnant of TB?

I have no idea what "TB" is, but th easiest way to remove the message
about emails waiting on the login screen is with the free MS Power Toy
Tweak UI.
