hiya john......................windows messenger is a pain in the
a***....basically its the same to disable as msn 7.0..open it and go to the
tools menu......under options ..uncheck the box "load on windows
startup"..click apply and ok..then go to .........start../run/ type in
"msconfig" (no quotes)..uncheck the messenger box ..click ok
/apply..reboot...that should do it.....if that does not another programme is
definately using win messenger...............another option is to delete
windows messenger altogether i suppose..i've never done it but i suppose it
can be done.without windows crying its getting hurt..
