Another way to get rid of windows messenger is to get infected by a virus,let it go about on your computer for a few weeks and it's bound to run into it eventually and kill it.
:lol: :lol:
That's how I got rid of it anyway.....along with some other stuff :frusty:
:lol:
I still see no real need to remove it...just disable it completely in the policy editor
:rolleyes:

windows messenger is an app that is installed with window xp and 2000 to communicate between comps on a network and for admin type annoucments
learn the difference as this bullshit just confuses ppl
as said b4
to stop windows messenger use this

to kill msn messenger use this
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove
some of you ppl should stop just replying to posts just cause you think

and replacing it with another app like
MSN 6.2 with Messenger Plus owns!
or
trillian
does not fix the user problem, so ffs stfu unless you have the correct answer

You're getting Windows Messenger and the Messenger service confused.
The Messenger service is what you're describing, and It can be disabled through services.msc
Windows Messenger is kind of like...MSN lite. Installed by default on XP.
It can be disabled via policy editor (gpedit.msc) or other means.
but.
anyway.
MSN 6.2 with...oh blah, I already said that.
You don't have to "kill" MSN Messenger. Just uninstall it.
oh. and...

urm i dont think so mate check this
Windows Messenger and messenger service are the same thing
http://www.itc.virginia.edu/desktop/docs/messagepopup/
windows messenger service is the one that spams you computer
msn messenger is an app that is installed as a 3rd party software along with windows and is used to communicate between ppl over the internet. You can not use msn messenger over a lan without the internet connected
although these 2 can be confused, they are certainly not the same thing
thus refering to msn messenger as windows messenger can and will confuse issues
