Someone help me. Whenever I start windows and get online.
I get automatically signed into my messenger account.
Other people using msn messenger or windows messenger can
see me online and I can recieve their messages through a
windows messenger like popup windows even though I didn't
even launch either msn or windows messenger (their
automatically launch option is also disabled and there's
no icon in the taskbar).
 
Greetings Steven,

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.
