This doesn’t what I need it to do.
I am trying to prevent XP pro from displaying a description about ALL and ANY item, whenever I hover my mouse pointer over it.
Example. Mouse over outlook icon on quicklaunch, result large description appears.
Example, mouse over google search box and box appears to tell me that this is the search box.
How do I stop this stuff?
