I may well go back to the old XP Pro or perhaps even 2000, so far it is more trouble than it's worth. |
You can be sure that if some of your S/W doesn't work, then the firms concerned will issue a fix PDQ with the number of folks installing SP2 now.
Does Mailwasher appear in the process list in task manager? Have you checked your logfiles? If not, they are a very useful resource. Start/All Programs/Administrative tools/Event Viewer.
As far as the popups go, do you mean from the tray? If so you can shut them up by right-clicking an unoccupied section of the taskbar, properties, hit the taskbar tab at the top, then the customise button. Locate the offending tray icon and set it to 'always hide'.
