Darn, aren't you afraid of being "Plonked" by the entire community for top
posting this reply??? Thanks for the response, I was not aware of the
effects on these as they are things I normally would not use anyway :-)

No, but there was a claim made that it breaks many things and you

Wow, so that was the 'many' things it 'breaks'??? LOL

That wasn't my claim.

*plonk*

No he didn't say that. Perhaps if you learned to post correctly you
could follow what was posted.

Join the top-poster file... /PLONK/



Yes, he did and I'll post how I damn well please thank you :-)
Windows Messenger is a big part of Windows. When you uninstall it, you
break a lot of things.

exaxtly?

I figure I better put this question both places till I knew which place was
preffered, and which was considered radical posting. Your thoughts?

At least I copied the previous message. I think that is correct, yes?

PS. Any suggestions as to where I can learn about this etiquite would be
appreciated. Thanks.
