we have windows xp and windows messenger was installed automatically on our system. We use msn instant messenger and do not wish to have windows messenger. It automatically signs in when we check our mail. Is there a way to uninstall windows messenger?
 
Greetings Bridget,

By checking your mail, do you mean Outlook Express? If so, you can simply close Outlook
Express, then download and run the following .reg file in order to stop Messenger from
starting:

However, if you mean, MSN Explorer, Windows Messenger will automatically start with it, so
you'll have to check via the Hotmail website instead (http://hotmail.msn.com).
