Kill System Tray Balloons

In checking out Scott Howlett's weblog I found the answer to my #1 complaint in XP. I swear, those little balloons are the new Clippy. Linked here so I can find it even from workstations I don't use the Google Desktop.

You can also use TweakUI[1]. Under Taskbar and Start Menu. It sets the same registry value. You can also turn off low disk space warnings too.
