Re: messenger doesnt turn off all the way



Hi,

Which Messenger client are you using exactly? If you're using Windows Live Messenger, then
it's probably Windows Messenger (not Live) running in the background.

Right-click on a blank area of the taskbar and choose Task Manager. Click the processes and
tab and see if msmsgs.exe is running. If it is, click it and choose End Process.

Greetings,

Just right-click the Messenger icon in the notification area (by the clock) and choose
Exit.
That should get rid of it.
