I've run "Shoot the Messenger" and it says that windows
messenger is disabled, but it keeps popping up message
after freaking message and it's really getting on my
nerves...I don't use it in any way shape or form...any
way to just remove it or permanently shut it off? Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
