hi-the problem you described is the same as my own in every way.has
been driving me mad recently and was put onto this link via another
help site.
as you have done,i have tried to stop msn messenger coming up in system
tray(by unclicking whatever i could) but it still keeps appearing.i
noted the comments and advice you received;i am not so keen on idea of
having to startup messenger every time,then going into hotmail;am
tempted to uninstall 6.2 version and re-install earlier 4.7. what did
you do?
