how to remove/disable the chat thing in gmail?

cutlass1991 · 02-10-2006, 10:39 AM

It's a cool idea, but I would like to shut it off because whenever I hold my mouse over an email message, boxes pop up. This is great on a new computer with a 18" monitor, but if I am using gmail on an old laptop, it becomes a real pain because the computer can't handle the extra graphics stuff. Please LMK.

Thanks,

Dan
