I'm Forever blowing BUBBLES (Grrr! )

I'd like to burst them !! (stop Them! )

Sunday, July 6, 2008 by mike b1954 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Just a quickie , folks ....

How do I stop the darn annoying "bubbles " that appear when I mouse over summat ? 

Things such as 'click here to begin' or 'opens new window' etc... 

Just wondering .. as usual ...

I saw some bubble dancers in Vegas. They had metal detectors to check for straight-pins. (
