Email announcement on user account page

I am running Windows XP. My ISP is Comcast. My Windows user account page--the
one that displays my user icon, and where I enter my password--has started
displaying a message about the contents of one of my email accounts at
Comcast. This is a new account that I set up a couple of days ago as a sender
address when using Word '07's email merge function. Mail merge is working
just fine, but I've never before seen in Windows an announcement about the
contents of my Comcast mailboxes. I don't know what I did to set it up, and
I'd like to get rid of it.

Thanks in advance for any help.

You're in the wrong place for this question, this is a Media Center forum,
your question should be posted in an XP General newsgroup to get more/better
help.

The unread messages is displayed by default for any mail account the
registers (usually any Outlook Express/Outlook accounts). When you set up
the new account that must have happened.

See this page:

For the options on removing the notification (either with a Reg edit or
using Tweakui).
