I have tried looking on google, but I couldnt find anything about it, so Im kind of stumped.
This can be related to the "unread email count" in Windows itself. The expiration setting might be a bit too high, and/or the unread email count is set wrong, and/or the program which tries to change this registry key doesn't have the proper access rights.
To reset it, see:

if the program (Messenger) doesn't have the proper access right see the KB article links in the post listed above
