When I have Yahoo mail open the tab shows (6 unread) when there are zero unread emails when I do have a unread email it will read 7 for one, 8 for 2 and so on. How do I get zero to read zero on the tab. I can't figure it out and its driving me crazy.

I think this thing read right before I loaded Yahoo Tool Bar so I could use Yahoo Mail as my default. Since then It hasn't been correct. It did read (4 unread) for a while then for some reason it changed to 6.

Sounds like a fault with the Yahoo Toolbar add-on. Try disabling that extension, and see if your hunch about it is correct.

I don't know what you mean by "extension". Maybe I should just delete the Yahoo tool bar and reload it. Thanks for your reply.

If that Toolbar is faulty, reloading it probably isn't going to do anything, just disable it and see if that problem goes away.
