Greetings,

First run this:
http://messenger.jonathankay.com/dow...ssenger_oe.reg

Then, close down Windows Messenger if it's running (right click the messenger icon in the
notification area/system tray and click close). Then click the start button, then click Run
and type in (copy-paste if you like):
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove
Then click OK. Messenger will then be uninstalled. For more detailed instructions and
screenshots, go to,

How do you complete remove messenger form WindowsXP pro.
I have clicked option to NOT start it when windows
starts, and I have gone to Outlook Express and said I do
NOT want it to start when Outlook Express starts. I just
want to get rid of it ALTOGETHER. Everytime it starts,
McAfee warns me that a program is trying to reach the
internet.

I cannot find how to remove it in the control panel
add/remove programs.

Thanks
