Messenger 8 loads msmsgs.exe even when you have disabled
windows messenger 4.7. If you look in messenger-tools-
options-messages you will see a tick in the box to scan
files using the virus checker. Even if you untick this
it will come back on the next time you look. According
to McAfee this is a feature that you can't disable
this !!! This is with the McAfee boxed retail version.

This causes the old error messages with MSN Messenger as
it thinks it is already logged in to Windows Messenger.
