MSN Messenger 4.6 / 4.7 & MSN Messenger 5.0

[rtdos]

When I try to install MSN Messenger 5.0 on Windows XP (HE) Both MSN
Messenger 4.7 & 5.0 attempt to load at the same time. How can I either
uninstall 4.7 or install 5.0 OVER 4.7 ?

There are actually two (2) different "Messengers" and they function =
differently:

How are MSN Messenger and Windows=AE Messenger different?=20

You can easily uninstall "MSN MESSENGER" via the Add/Remove Programs
applet in your Control Panel.

Or you can disable "Windows Messenger":

Open "Windows Messenger" and from the Toolbar select
Tools > Options > Preferences and uncheck:

"Run this program when Windows starts" and
"Allow this program to run in the background", then
click OK.

Next, open Outlook Express and from the Toolbar select
Tools > Options and under the General tab uncheck
"Automatically log on to Windows Messenger" and click
APPLY.
