You may have removed MSN messenger but don't forget Windows XP comes with
Windows Messenger too. Are you sure it is still the msn messenger and 'not'
window messenger that has appeared?
to remove windows messenger visit my website
http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org Click the Win XP Faq button and take a look
at question 15. You might also like to take a look at question 17 too.

Sounds like you've still got it in your registry as well as in your
startup. Use the MSCONFIG from the RUN box to remove it from your
startup, and check out these links to remove it from your registry...
there's also a helper there to reinstall it later if you want. Hope
this helps! =)
