How do you disable window messenger? Is unchecking its entry in MSCONFIG a
reliable way?

How do you uninstall it?

Thanks

.I removed mine in the add/remove windows componets.
 
Run Regedit.
Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and go to
CLSID{F3A614DC-ABED-11d2-A441-00C04F795683}
Delete the entire key

In the next run, window messenger will not load.
