[b]hello

i was wondering if anyone can help by telling me how i can completely uninstall msn 7 and msn plus from my pc so i can reinstall it and hopefully lose the problems ive been getting with it for the last few months,ive used the normal way to uninstall but when i reinstall it still has all my old settings and display pictures and stuff therefore it is obviously not removing it completely when i do it

ive been having probs such as: not automaticaly signing in,slow image transfers,my display pictures keep going off,my settings for font and colours change when they feel like it

its begining to really bug me now so id really appreciate any help

thanks xx

Go to the control panel> add/remove programs> MSN Messenger 7> Remove.

Remove the MSN Messenger folder in C:\Program Files

Remove the MSN Messenger folder in C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Microsoft

Remove any other folders which point to the MSN Messenger folder in program files.

The next stage is very dangerous if you don't know what you are doing, so follow the instructions carefully and don't delete anything else.

Start> Run> type "regedit" (without quotes)> Locate to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\

and

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\

Then delete the folder called MSN Messneger or something like MSN Messenger.

Then reboot your computer.

Download MSN Messenger from http://messenger.msn.com and install it.

NOTE: When deleting your folder in Application Data, you will lose all  custom emoticons, backgrounds etc. You can use MSN Backup to backup these things.

Should fix your problems

ok thanks for your help i shall give it a try
