DANG!! These tooltips are driving me crazy!

I've tried everything to disable them. I tried modyfying the regisrty as instructed on windows xp help pages, tried unchecking tooltips in the folder options display, tried disabling them in tweak ui for xp and tweaknow powerpack and STILL they keep appearing.

Any thoughts ? any ideas?

at the risk of asking a silly question, in which part of windows are you trying to get rid of tool tips? i dont see many, but on the very rare occasions i use windows explorer it likes to produced stupid big tool tips that get in the way.

all i am aware of getting are tooltips on tool bar buttons and system tray icons.

Thanks for the tip, but I tried it and it didnt work for me. I already had winamp 2 and Idownloaded Nicemc and no luck with getting rid of those blasted tooltips

I agree, those darn tooltips that show up all over the place in skin studio are THE most annoying. Even though I have that feature turned off in skin studio, they still appear.

Hum, I actually don't mind the tooltips. Alfter all they don't show up until you hover over the button for a second or two. And I actually find them quite handy, especially for applications I am not 100% familiar with.

The nicemc plugin has to be the correct version.There are two versions.One for winamp2.x and one for winamp 3.You have to have the version for winamp 2.Plus winamp has to be loaded of course.I never see popups anymore.i'm on xp so that could be the problem.
