(Hotmail, MSN, Live, GMail, etc.)How did your son's friends access their emails? (With mail client such as Outlook Express or Windows Live Mail - OR via a webmail interface, using a browser such as Internet Explorer).

Hi sandraelaine, 1. Which email program are you using? Check and make sure that you have not signed into the friends email account. Hope this helps!Halima S - Microsoft Support.Visit our Microsoft Answers Feedback Forum and let us know what you think.

I believe that it's simply the message on the Welcome screen that's incorrect, not that he has all those messages on his laptop. See if this helps: Overview of the mail notification display on the Windows XP Welcome screen.Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]--------------------------------https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/Brian.TillmanIf a reply helps, please vote it as helpful.
