The start page of windows (where you see all other user's accounts) is
showing information about an email that I have in hotmail, but I do not want
this info to be seen by other users (The information that appears is how many
unreads messages I have, and my email account). How can i stop this from
happening???
Please help me, cause this happen in my boss computer, and I will be in
troubles!!!

Greetings K,

To disable this feature, download the TweakUI powertoy:
http://microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx (see on the right).

After you have TweakUI installed, click Start, All Programs, Powertoys for Windows XP, and
choose TweakUI for Windows XP. In the TweakUI window, on the left, click the '+' next to
Logon, and choose Unread Mail. Uncheck 'Show unread mail on Welcome screen' and click OK.
