Im wondering if anyone knows how to fix this..I had windows msn on my computer and have removed it using the taskbar and control panel, but everytime i go on to the internet it automatically logs me into windows msn, even though it wont show up on the screen..and then a popup comes on saying i have signed on somewhere else..I thought if I deleted it from the control panel and taskbar it would be gone..not sure what else to do with this??
 
Greetings Kate,

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.
