How do I get rid of that daft 02 logo in the title bar that you can drag along. It has a menu that says mobile web and a few other things. Is it something in teh startup ? I removed the O2 active from the startup but there is an 02 prog that says connections or something.
Just installed a router so my son can use his psp. always just used a pci wifi card before to connect anything to the net. I now have the net running fine on my wizard and the psp, but can i browse my shared pc files through the router or do I have to use the pci wifi card ? The pc with the shared files is connected directly to the router via lan cable.
Also when connecting to my wifi, I keep getting hotmail messages appearing even after delete. I now have a trash can full of 2 lots of the same messages and now its just downloaded them to my wizzard again. I select all to delete and they go from the inbox, but then next time I connect it downloads them all again. Is it not deleting them from the server or something ?

can only answer the first one I'm afraid as I havn't had the other issues you mention but see this link for how to remove the O2 nastiness. Its easiest to remove all the O2 rubbish in one go, I tried removing 'O2 active' from startup as well but it wasn't sufficient, its a much faster handheld once you remove the O2 stuff!

Other posts to help you:
OK, i did a hard reset then a soft reset to prevent th O2 stuff installing.
I then installed some of the ext_rom files with help from here:

There must be a reg hack or a prog to remove that will get rid of that silly 02 prog on the taskbar without having to hard reset ?

there may well be but at the same time, active sync will backup all your contacts, calendar and files which should allow you to do a factory reset but not loose anything, simply resync once your through the reset.

Dont want to hard reset now, my device is starting to take shape. Will just see how it goes and maybe someone will find out how to get rid of it.

Try these to open shared folder at remote PC from Wizard over WiFi (names might differ coz I'm using localized version of WM5):
1) Run "Explorer" on your Wizard
2) Open "Menu" and point to "Open Path...[A]"
3) Choose "New path...[A]" and enter your PC's name there as "\\PCNAME" or the entire path to shared folder like "\\PCNAME\FOLDER1" (to reveal your PC's name open "My Computer" properties and look at "Computer name" tab in "Full computer name" field. PC's name will be text before the first dot, ex: pcname.somewhere.net.work, i.e. name = pcname)

You are having default behaviour of "Inbox" message removal. Which is "Delete manually". All you need to do after deleting your message is:
1) Delete your messages like you always do
2) Choose "Empty Deleted items" from your "Menu" of "Messaging"
3) Choose "Send & Receive"
