double msn.

Interesting problem I have is that the old msn messenger
4.7 logs me on automatically *it was never set this way*
but I only use the messenger 6.1 version. The 6.1
version was set to automatically log me in. Somehow the
software or maybe just me is messing up and it double
logs. It'll log into 6.1 then version 4.7 then I'll have
to manually log into version 6.1. Of course I don't
think you can get rid of version 4.7 because it's
connected to outlook express and many other things in the
OS. Any solutions?

Hi,

To Prevent Windows Messenger from Running on a Windows XP-Based Computer
http://support.microsoft.com/default...roduct=WinMsgr

When you do this your Windows Messenger won't show up in your taskbar
anymore

However if you want to completely remove/uninstall Windows Messenger from
Windows XP can be found at this website made by Jonathan Kay.

Follow the steps and the pictures that the website has and you shouldn't
have anymore problems. Uninstalling Windows Messenger can disable some of
the messenger features such as Whiteboard Sharing, and others on MSN
Messenger if you're using that.
