The ISSUE: having not logged on into MSN Messenger and neither logged on to hotmail.com to check emails.........I still get a prompt on the standby screen as "received 12 or anyno of emails and it states all my hotmails ids".I should not get this emails alert as i havent even used all these hotmails id either thru MSN Messenger or for checking emails by loging on to the hotmail.com website.............

What is Microsoft .NET Passport??

Hotmail & MSN IDs are by default .NET Passports...

Windows Explorer try to register/associate your Windows User Account with a .NET Passport so that whenever you're online it can automatically sign-in you to .NET enabled serices like all MSN/Microsoft & McAfee services & also many banks, casinos, shopping, stuff...

Do u use ur Hotmail ID(s) with Outlook/Outlook Express... then download Microsoft TweakUI Powertoy to get rid of that "number of unread e-mail messages on login screen"...

[ShekharPalash]

For ur FlashGet problem try to delete those entries in IE's context menu using Browser Sentinel

PS: In TweakUI Powertoy you can solve ur problem here TweakUI > Logon > Unread e-Mails

No i dont use my Hotmail Id's with Outlook/outlook Express......Besides downloading stuff is there any other solution...........
