Have you tried opening My Computer and going to
Tools > Folder options > View tab.
Then scroll to the bottom of the list of options and untick "Show pop-up descriptions for folder and desktop items"
then click Apply, then click "Apply to all folders" at the top, then select OK, and it should be gone...

It was un checked, so I checked it then hit all folders then apply, then unchecked it again, did the same. no luck ;[ When I hold the mouse over my shortcuts or the start button the balloons show up.
thanks for the suggestion!!

I used powertoys, unistalled them, reinstalled them, still the balloons from hell creep back into my life.
Xteq X- Setup 6.2 final from lockergnomes is 1 all around tweaking tool. You can get it from major geeks or a number of places. You can tweak to your hearts content. It has everything from internet explorer to cache to clearing stuff at log off and everything in between.
