Re: Unable to delete multiple 'Statement of fees 2008/09' Spam fro

Winston,
Of course you are right....I was looking for a subkey of
"SearchFolderVersion" and didn't see the key looking back at me !! Anyway I
closed WLM, went to regedit, deleted the key, closed regedit, and then opened
WLM, and guess what...They were still there..still unable to do anything with
them... in the end I deleted the account, and re-created it, and they have
gone !!

Thanks everyone who contributed...

Paul
