Does anyone have a vbs or any script that will "disable" the messenger
service on windows 2000 systems?

Thanks,

Patrick

Yes. See:

http://unattended.sourceforge.net/ap...l#startup-type

You will have to install Perl first; you can download it for free from
<http://www.activestate.com/Products/ActivePerl/>. (Or you can
translate the script to VB.)

Invoke it as "startup-type.pl manual Messenger" or "startup-type.pl
disabled Messenger" to turn off the messenger service. I do this on
all of the machines I build...

why don't you just turn off the service and don't have it startup.
Easiest solution I think
