Microsoft indexing.

[Brian V]

I downloaded the Microsoft Index Service program, and was wondering how to
uninstall it if I need to. If I don't use it, I don't want it. Which folders
do I go in and which options do I choose? How do I remove it from the bottom
right of my computer, because it always pops up at start-up and kind of lags
my start-up.

It was from the microsoft update site. It was there when I looked for updates.

I think it is some automatic program that will stay in the updates section
until I download it.

Also, how do I remove msn messenger/live messenger from the same lower right
corner of my screen by the clock, and disable it from popping up at start-up?

Have you tried to disable it on the services.msc
