Every time i end msnsgs.exe it automatically starts itself
5 seconds later do i have to put a lock on this file or
is there another way t let me decide when this program
can can be run i cannot afford the spare ram used?
 
Greetings,

Do you have Norton Antivirus installed? Recent versions of Norton Antivirus added a new
"instant messaging scanning" feature, which can conflict with Windows Messenger and cause it
to also keep starting. To stop it, open Norton Antivirus (Right-click on the Norton Antivirus
icon in the System Tray/Notification Area (by the clock), choose 'Open Norton Antivirus'),
click Options, then Instant Messenger then uncheck MSN Instant Messenger and click OK.
