Good mod however you have your elements mixed up in your product, you have
HTML Code:
<a href="private.php">
<div style="display:scroll;position:fixed;bottom:-14px;right:-7px;" title="$vbphrase[unread_private_messages]" alt="$vbphrase[unread_private_messages]">
<img src="images/misc/new-mail-notification.png" />
</div></a>
But it should be
HTML Code:
<div style="display:scroll;position:fixed;bottom:-14px;right:-7px;" title="$vbphrase[unread_private_messages]" alt="$vbphrase[unread_private_messages]"><a href="private.php">
<img src="images/misc/new-mail-notification.png" border="0"/></a>
</div>

That made the trick ... Thank you Simon ... However still one more issue I hope you could fix it ... When I click the postman image in Google Chrome it takes me to the unopened pm :up: ... However the image is non-clickable in IE :erm: ... Is there any solution?

if you swap the elements round as i have show in post #22 they should be clickable, that change is howed for just one of them within the product works fine for me in IE8.

Just make sure you change the other elements in the product to do the same, import product with overwrite and you'll be golden
