Not too sure what your problem is. But you could ask the owner too either create a user account for you or get them to activate the guet account and use that.

goto run> type services.msc, now scroll through the list to "Messenger"
double click, disable it.. click apply.

Well... eventhough he said "Windows Messenger", he meant "MSN Messenger".

Actually, he has good reason to be confused. The version of MSN Messenger bundled with XP is a trimmed-down version of the real MSN Messenger, and can even be installed alongside of the real thing.
