When I loaded 8.0 I did custom install or something and saw a check box
for email, and unchecked it.
I've also turned off the link scanner. It puts all these little stars
on all my google results and as the mouse glides over them things pop
up. Its supposed to be a validity check of the websites. But some
take forever to resolve that the google results take so long to display.
Gone!!!
