Log on says unread email

My log on screen say I have unread emails.
How do I stop the unread email notification?
Thanks

In the registry at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntversion\unread mail
Double click the value Message Count in the right pane and change the value
to 0.

Here are a couple of articles you might want to look at.

Overview of the mail notification display on the Windows XP
Welcome screen

Remove Unread Email Count from the Windows XP Login Screen
http://www.mvps.org/marksxp/WindowsXP/emailui.php

The simplest way to not show unread email messages on the
Welcome screen is to download, install and run TweakUI from
Microsoft. Once you've installed TweakUI, go to Start -> All
Programs -> Powertoys for Windows XP and launch the program.
Click the + sign next to Logon. Click on Unread Mail. Make the
appropriate changes in the right hand pane. Click OK. Restart
your compute to see if you get the desired results.

use the tweakiu and do exactly what nepatsfan says in his instructions
this is the safest way to do it without messing with the registy yourself
