In the more table, messenger says i have an application i
used to have but do not have anymore. I have unistalled
and reinstalled messenger but messenger says i still have
the application. I want to find out how to get rid of
the application in the table. Does anybody know how to
do this?

Greetings John,
You can remove the applications listed in Messenger by removing the entry in the registry.
Click Start, then click Run and enter "regedit.exe". Find the My
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Dir ectPlay\Applications key (they look like
folders), and then click the application you want to delete Then click the Edit menu and then
click Delete, confirm the operation, and then exit the registry editor. You'll also need to
restart Messenger to see the change.
