Hi! I was hoping someone might be able to answer a
question for me. I let somebody use my computer to check
his email, and he opened up Windows Messenger and installed
all his info on it. Now, I am getting all his friends
IMing me, apparently every time I go online, it
automatically signs me in. Does anyone know how to delete
his information from my computer and NOT get Messenger to
pop up all the time? I did configure the option that it
does not start automatically upon opening Windows, but that
apparently does not apply to the Web.
just copied this from other group for you it bugged me too
-- To address your problem, you'll just need to disable Windows Messenger. To do so, open it up
(click Start, then Run, type "msmsgs" and click OK), click Tools, Options, Preferences tab
and uncheck 'Run this Program when Windows starts' or 'Run Windows Messenger when Windows
starts' (depending on version) as well as 'Allow this program to run in the background' or
'Allow Windows Messenger to run in the background' (depending on version). This won't remove
Windows Messenger, so features like Remote Assistance, Whiteboard and Application Sharing
will continue to work, but it will let it stay out of your way.
I believe that forgiving them is gods function. Our jobis arranging the
meeting. (Norman Schwartzkof just after 9/11)
