Jonathan Kay - that .reg file
I would like to ask what the file at:
http://messenger.jonathankay.com/dow...opmessenger_oe ..reg does to prevent Outlook Express from doing something? Does Microsoft Outlook count as Outlook Express since they use the same kernal. They do use the same kernal, don't they? Well, I am trying it out. If it works I will come back and tell you. If it fails then I will tell you as well as resort to terminating it in Task Manager. Thanks for the help. |

Jonathan Kay - that .reg file
Greetings Roy,
All this does is add a registry key which stops Windows Messenger from loading with Outlook Express, and prevents it from integrating into the Outlook Express "contacts" area. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "kernel" -- all Windows applications run on the same kernel, there is only one -- kernel32.dll. However, this registry key will not changed anything in Microsoft Outlook (2002), in order to disable the built-in Messenger support in Outlook, you'll need to click the Tools menu, then Options, then the Other tab, and uncheck 'Enable Instant Messaging in Microsoft Outlook'. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Windows MVP, Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "Roy" wrote in message ...
