Messenger 4.7 came with computer. Downloaded 7.5. 4.7 still there. Not on
uninstall list, but stays on toolbar. How do I get rid of 4.7. Thanx.

Greetings,

As long as you don't mind losing Remote Assistance, Whiteboard or Application Sharing within
MSN Messenger, you can simply uninstall Windows Messenger and solve this madness by clicking
the Start button, then click Run and type in (copy-paste if you like):
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove

Then click OK.
Messenger will then be uninstalled. For more detailed instructions and screenshots, go to,
