msn messenger verses windowns messenger

[DK]

I haven't found a way to uninstall Windows Messenger or
disable it from signing on as soon as I start the
browser. In order to use all the features of MSN
Messenger, I just make sure to sign in there; it
automatically signs me out of the other Messenger.

>I have recently bought a new PC with windows xp on it.
As part of the package it had windows messenger on it. I
was using it to chat to my friends as I already have an
account with msn messenger using my email address as a
passport.
>I found I couldn't use my webcam as the windows version
of messenger doesn't support webcams so I did as I was
instructed and downloaded msn messenger 6.1. Now both
windows messenger and msn messenger fight to load when I
open up my pc. I have tried to uninstall windows
messenger but can't find it listed on my uninstall list.
Can anyone help please.

1.Go to start, right click on Windows Messenger (probably 4.7) and
delete.

2 delete C:\Program Files\Messenger

That should be good. Worked for me, but you may need to run msconfig
to get it off your startup.
