Andrew Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 when I start my computer and it goes to the screen where you login, it says 1 unread mail messageI do not know where this came from. i checked all my mail clients and there is no new e-mailI have winxp 512 ram, 80gb, p4 1.7, use ie outlook express to read mail, I recently installed netscape but the message didnt appear until 5 days later(no new mail there). it is only saying that for one of the three users on computer, and that is the user that is used 98% of the timeit is not causing any known problems.any help as to how to remove it?

Andrew Posted November 14, 2002 Author Share Posted November 14, 2002 Thanks Nyarlathotep i'm pretty sure it worked. Your the best.ok after i did that my screen resolution in internet explorer just changed to a really big resolution, i can not make out the writing it is so small. maybe i need to restart my computer, but still..i just rebooted, and it is still all small...hmm, but where i am typing in this reply is the normal size but the rest of it is smallit is affecting all internet sites. i will try to reverse what i have done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted November 14, 2002 Author Share Posted November 14, 2002 did that and that didnt work...... now i am angry...but i did make a backup copy of my reg before i made the changes. so if i reinstalled that would it fix it???ok i just tried viewing dune2k in netsapce and it is all screwed up..but other web sites are ok in it.ok i set the reg back to normal, i am getting the 1 unread mail thing and ie is still screwed up.i did a system restore of my settings that were this morning and that fixed the problem ..now to try and get rid of that one unread message .finally, i did that reg thing again and got rid of it and now ie works right....thanks!

Gobalopper Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 The text size was too big? There is a menu pull down you can use to fix that... View / Text Size I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted November 15, 2002 Author Share Posted November 15, 2002 oh yes, you are right gobalopper. but why would it have done the same(smaller text) for both ie and netscape after editing the registry for unread mail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 I don't know, maybe that somehow affected another setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
