Messenger 5.0
Greetings Len,
You can remove Windows Messenger 4.7 (the old one), but if you do, you will be preventing Remote Assistance, Whiteboard, Application Sharing and any other applications that utilize Messenger from working (or loading without problems). Instead, to stop Windows Messenger from loading with Outlook or Outlook Express: For Outlook (XP/2002), just open Outlook, click the Tools menu, then Options, then the Other tab, and uncheck 'Enable Instant Messaging in Microsoft Outlook'. For Outlook Express, close Outlook Express, and run this .reg file: http://messenger.jonathankay.com/dow...ssenger_oe.reg You'll need to start Outlook Express to see the change. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Windows MVP, Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "Len" wrote in message ...
