I tried to uninstall msn messanger just like the original message states to do.(oct. 01 form)- Navigate to C:windowsinf, Open sysoc.inf....well I did that but the file is almost blank. There is very little text in there. Not to mention none of the text talked about earlier. I used the show hidden files and folders option. What now? I'm getting very angry at this msn messanger. Does nobody know how to uninstall it???? Please help.

Get XP Anti-spy program.It's free.You can find it at WebAtaack.com under freeware>Security-Privacy>cache and cookie.The home page is in german.But I have the program in english.I beleive there is an option to download english version.It is 26kbs,and is a versatile program.I had the same problem you have,getting rid of that crappy messenger service.Someone in this forum recommended this program,so I installed it.Sure enough,xp anti-spy un-installed my windows/msn messenger.It's easy and fast.Hope this helps.JB
