I have recently downloaded Messenger 6.1 and thought it
would overwrite automatically the previous 4.7 version.
It didn't and now the laptop tries to boot up both
versions... hmmmmm ... I have tried to delete the old
4.7 folder but the system won't let me. I deleted 6.1
abd then tried to delete 4.7 ... no joy. I re-downloaded
and re-installed 6.1 in the hope that I could force an
overwrite of 4.7... no joy. If anyone there can make
sense of what I hava said above and he problem, I would
be very grateful for an answer.

Best regards
