Re: Turn off Messenger Tabs



Greetings,

You can't be that specific, but you can turn them all off.

Just download and run this .reg file:

I do not use the Tabs in Messenger and and have the feature disabled in Security. One of the
Tabs is for the National Lottery and even with the Tabs disabled, my company's firewall,
Active Net Steward, keeps flashing up warning alerts that the National Lottery site a banned
site.

Is there any way Messenger can be disabled from sending/recieving background messages? Or
can the Tab for the Lottery be permanently deleted?

Please help
