Re: Msn Messenger 7.5-Need Help



Greetings Patrick,

To remove this, click Start, then click Run and enter "regedit.exe" and click OK. Then
navigate (it's like Windows Explorer) to My
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\UnreadMail\yourmsnname@xxxxxxxxxxx

Where yourmsnname@xxxxxxxxxxx is the passport. Double-click the MessageCount and enter 0 as
the value (this will set back to none). Then click OK, close the registry editor, and log out
to see the change.
