I have a fairly new laptop (less than 3 months old) with Windows XP
Professional on it. I never use the messenger service, but still I
started receiving messages saying I have an old version of MSN
Messenger on it, and it needs upgraded.
I followed the link the message provided, and installed the upgrade.
I thought I was done seeing this type of message. The next time I
came on line, the same message popped up again. I thought, "well this
will stop after the next reboot." I was wrong.
In all, I've installed the 'upgrade' three times, and I'm still
getting this stupid message. I guess what I need to know is one (or
both) answers to two questons:
(1) Does anyone know a solution to this - in case I ever decide to do
this?
(2) Does anyone know how to deactivate the MSN Messenger, so it'll
stop logging on when I come on line? The options menu doesn't seem to
have an effect here. Other than changing operating systems (that has
crossed my mind), I'd just rather not to have to deal with this
problem again...
Thanks!
