My wife downloaded MSN Messenger 6. The problem is that
this did not overwrite Windows Messenger 4.7, with the
consequence that both start running and try to log me on,
resulting in "You have been logged out.." messages.
I have tried:
- setting Windows MEssenger to not start at start-up. It
still does.
- uninstalling it from "Add/remove Windows components".
It now shows as not installed, but it still starts up!
I can't apply the RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %
windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove hack recomended
elsewhere on this board, since this requires shutting
Windows Messenger down and it refuses to shut, claiming
another program is using its functions (this happens
regardless of whether I have OE running).
This is driving me nuts! Any help appreciated.
thanks
