email message count on login screen

Next to the login id's XP also displays how may 'new or unopened emails' the user has.  I guess it's reading the list when I open emails from MSN messenger.
 
Is there an easy way to stop the message displaying.

    If you don't want to show unread mail on the Welcome screen, follow these instructions:

    1. Start the Registry Editor
    2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ UnreadMail
    3. Double-click the value MessageExpiryDays in the right pane, and change the value to 0 (if MessageExpiryDays doesn't exist, create it by clicking Edit > New > DWORD Value)
    4. Close the registry editor and log off from Windows for the changes to take effect
