MSN and Windows Messenger icons
Greetings James,
Are you sure you don't have MSN Messenger 5 installed? Try running it and see what happens -- you can always remove MSN Messenger 5 by clicking Start, Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs, click MSN Messenger 5 and then choose Remove. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Windows MVP, Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "James" wrote in message ... Hi, I just updated Windows Messenger to version 4.7.2005. Now I have noticed there are two icons in the All Programs menu - Windows Messenger and MSN Messenger. I do not have MSN Messenger installed. Why is MSN Messenger there? Thanks James

MSN and Windows Messenger icons
Hi Jonathan,
Thanks for the reply. Yep, I'm sure I don't have MSN Messenger 5 installed (but I have the MSN add-in for Windows Messenger). When "MSN Messenger" is opened from the start menu, it opens up Windows Messenger. Also, it doesn't have the MSN Messenger logo (the one with the butterfly) - it is identical to the Windows Messenger one. This is the target for MSN Messenger: "C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe" (which is the same as Windows Messenger. Thanks James "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" wrote in message ...

MSN and Windows Messenger icons
Hi James,
I'm not sure how that got there, but it's completely safe to delete (from what you've described). ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Windows MVP, Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "James" wrote in message ...
