hello everyone,

Is there a way for me to permanenlty remove windows live messenger on my start-up entry? Im asking because even i already removed it on my start-up entry, it keeps coming back ones i started using the messenger again, its annoying because the window automatically shows up after boot-up.

Any help will be very much appreciated...

thank you...

Have you tried clicking the tools tab at the top and then the options tab, then click on the general tab at the side then uncheck "Automatically run Windows live mess when I log on "
Or if this dont work ,
Go to Start/Run/ type: msconfig /then click the start up tab then make sure there is no check in the msn box/

" Please Post back to let us know if we helped "
