MSN Messenger 6.0 help?

Hi again, still working on the email virus prob, thanks for all the tips.  Next prob is with my MSN messenger, when i click 'sign in' how can i delete the alternative log in names from that drop down menu, i only use one log in name, and the others i want removed.  Delete doesnt work, nor does turning off 'auto complete' in internet tools, any ideas on this one?          Thanks.

 

ps....i even uninstalled the program and reinstalled it but they still there grrrrrr

thanks for fast reply..........im not about to dabble in my registry lol im a bit scared of all that.......surely theres a simple way for messenger to forget all previous log in names????  its gotta be a simple 'delete' somewhere???

Michael, you're a wizz...thanks, was too easy, tho i would never have found that myself , i have another issue now.  On my main XP home screen, where u choose your name/icon thing to log on to windows....it keeps telling me 'you have 13 unread messages'.  When i hover my cursor over that, it tells me its for the hotmail.com account that i just deleted from my messenger log on (as instructed by you).  This was a friends log on, she used my MSN messenger once and her log on name stayed there, now that i managed to get rid of that, how can i get rid of her unread hotmail messages, which are appearing under my Windows log on?   I have no idea why it has associated me with her hotmail address.  Does that make sense?  Anyway, any suggestions appreciated, maybe the answer is somewhere in the <control userpasswords2> thing as well?  thanks.

well go to tweak UI and somewhere..u will find to reset and even disable new email count on the login screen..sorry cant tell u specfucally where is it located bcuz i dont have power toys installed here..
