Window XP User Sign-In E-mails waiting

[Guest]

Can anyone help me? I have a problem. When my computer is turned on and it is
at the user sign in screen it is supposed to show each users new e-mails by
their name. The problem is, I had to re-install windows (virus) & now MY user
name is showing MY e-mails AND another users e-mails by MY name. The other
user does not show e-mails waiting for him by HIS user name but once he goes
into his account, low and behold, the e-mails are there just like it says by
MY name.

Jspeed,
Go to this link:

D'ld to desktop and install the appropriate TweakUI for your pc. (see right
hand side of web page)
Run Tweak UI and double click on "Logon", then click on "Unread mail" and
choose the appropriate options.
Reboot.

Teris, I downloaded TweakUI it to my desktop but when I click on the icon it
is saying it "not a valid Win32 application"

Thanks so much for your help.

There are two reasons that I know of for this error.

A) The downloaded file is corrupted.
B) You downloaded the 64 bit patch in error (the second Tweak UI for
Itanium).

Either redownload TweakUI again making sure it is the first Tweak UI (147kb)
listed and NOT the Tweak UI for Itanium OR go to Doug Knox's site and simply
use his xp_mailnotify_all.vbs file.

First before going any further, I would create a restore point prior to
doing any further changes to your system as a precaution.
(Start, All Programs, Accessories, Systems Tools, sytem restore, select
create a restore point, type a name for this restore point, click next etc)

Doug Knox's site is: http://www.dougknox.com/
1.Click on Win XP Fixes (left hand side) then click on "Disable/Enable
Unread Mail Notifications".
2.Download xp_mailnotify_all.vbs file. Save to desktop and then double
click the file to run.
3.Reboot pc.
