I have Windows messenger and MSN messenger 6.0. i disabled
windows messenger, but it keeps loading anyway, and it's
also signing in, even though i ticked the box that says
not to. how do i get rid of it completely? it's also
signing me out of MSN messanger.
 
Hi Jarryd,

Do you use Outlook Express for email? What is the setting in Tools > Options
 
Greetings Jarryd,

Do you have Norton Antivirus 2003 installed? Norton added a new "instant messaging scanning"
feature to Norton Antivirus 2003, which can conflict with Messenger and cause some of this
behavior. 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.
