My 2 year old has a knack for find hotkeys that I didnt even know existed,
and for messenger hes found one that hides it completely, I know its still
functioning, but I cant make it come up, its even hidden the icon in the
task bar, and its not available for alt-tab... This must be a hidden
Hide-it-the-boss-is-coming key, any body know what it is, he keeps doing it
ands its annoying?

Thanks in advance
 
I know nothing about the "hide key", but try launching Internet Explorerand
along with the other icons for Search, Favorites, etc. you should see an icon
for Messenger. Not the most efficient way to launch it, but it works.
 
Greetings,

There is no feature in Messenger itself, but there is in Messenger Plus. The default key to
use it is Ctrl-Space and you can turn it off by clicking the Plus! menu, then Preferences,
then Prviacy Protection and the Boss Protection tab.
