Hi all,

Does anyone know of a way to disable Windows XP Messenger permenantly? All
my friends use MSN 6.1 and Windows Messenger is not 100% compatible with it.

I have disabled it twice before, but after each windows update it comes
back. And since Windows updates are coming out quicker each month I would
like a permenant solution.

Oh, and I want to keep Windows XP before anyone says uninstall Windows XP.
;-)

Sorry if I am repeating anything prior posted, new here.

Kindest regards,

Andy.
