Greetings --

And just what, pray tell, does disabling the messenger service
have to do with the Windows Messenger instant messaging application?

Hello,

| start
| search, all files and folders
| services.msc
| open services.msc

It is quicker and easier to do it like so...

[Start]
| Run |
services.msc
[Enter]
