This is a pretty simple question I'm sure, but I can't
find any way to fix this, seems like some type of user
profile setting should do it. We have 2 accounts on this
notebook, when on the initial logon screen (the one that
has the little pictures for each user), the one for me
shows any programs that might be running and shows that
there are unread emails. Unfortunately, the email
account is not mine. If I put the mouse over it, it
shows the path to my husbands email on aol. I never set
it up to show that information anyway, but since it
decided to show it I want it to be the correct email path.

Anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks for any help,

Mona
