Question about 'Customize the Tray'

Does anybody know how I can customize the tray so it stops giving pop-ups for every
little program that loads there. (ie: "modem is now connected at....", "wireless
network now connected at blahblahblah") These things take up time and just drive
me nuts, because you have to "x" them out in order to see the portion of the desktop
in under them. The wireless network sensing drops and receives the signal several
times so its popping up all the time, is the big problem. Any ideas? thanks.

Try This. Note that this will disable ballons altogether.
1. Navigate to the following subkey:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
2. Right-click the right pane, create a new DWORD value, and then name it EnableBalloonTips.
Double-click this new entry, and then give it a hexadecimal value of 0.
3. Quit Registry Editor. Log off Windows, and then log back on.

I tried to set a wireless network between a desktop computer and a laptop, both
are running on Windows XP and both network cards are of the same make: Linksys, there
is a connection between the two cards but I cannot make the network function or share
the internet. do I still need a router even if there are only two computers?
