O.P. WLM Alerts for new video content
We have begun getting almost constant alerts stating, "New content available for MSN Video: Entertainment." I didn't ask for these and cannot figure out how to stop them. I get alerts for new emails or birthdays that I have set up so I do not want to stop all alerts. When I go to the MSN alerts page there is a sign up for Video alerts but it is not checked.

Please help - this is getting aggravating.

Thanks,
sktallaa

Options -> Alerts -> Uncheck "Display alerts when new videos are available" ;)

Ryxdp,

Thank you for you help. However, this is part of my frustration. That box is not checked nor have I ever checked it. Is there another source for the alerts?

Thanks,
sktallaa

Sign in to http://alerts.live.com/Alerts/MyAlerts.aspx. If you signed up for any Live Alerts they should show there.
Finish the problem

Like sktallaa, "Display Alerts.." check box is unchecked, and I still keep getting them.

On the web page suggested by Menthix, there are only "Sign me up for nnnnn", but I sure don't see any "unsubscribe".

I've had it.   How do I kill / delete / disable / completely remove the bottom "Alerts" portion of WLM???

Thanks in advance

^o) This is the page I get when I sign into the page Menthix posted:

There does seem to be an "Unsubscribe" button here...

Not on my planet.  Here's what Menthix's page looks like for me.

No matter what folder I click on the left (My Alerts, My Recent Alerts, ...) it always forces me back to this "http://alerts.live.com/Alerts/SignUpAlerts.aspx" page.

Now, if this means I'm *not* signed up for any, then WHY do they keep flooding in ????

Again, how do I completely eliminate the bottom 'Alerts' spam from WLM?

Thanks
