'You have unused icons on your desktop'
'You have updates waiting to be loaded'

The short of it is - you can disable these balloons by changing this registry key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\EnableBalloonTips
To 0
(You might need to create this DWORD value if it does not already exist)
If you don't feel like playing around in the registry, we have written a little
program that will do it for you:
