Sounds like some crap you've downloaded, I suggest trying to re-install Windows Live/MSN and then see if it's gone.

i tried that already. many times

I think you have downloaded something to make this happen so look in the Add/Uninstall section in the control panel to see if you can uninstall it if not try a spyware remover and afterwards try re-installing Messenger.

You've installed IM-Names.

To remove it, go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and remove it.

Use some anti spyware adware software.

that program is not there..

IM Names has a powerful fun feature to tell your friends about IM Names without the headache of telling EACH friend about it. This is how we let other people know about our application. If you wish to remove this function from our software you can do so by changing the program's options, or by uninstalling it via Ad/Remove Programs in your control panel.

needing hellp i see well hears what to do

You download this program called: MoveOnBoot

It's free and this simple tool allows you to Move, Copy or Delete files before Windows can lock or alter the files. The changes are made to your hard drive before Windows starts, hence it requires a restart of your system after you give MoveOnBoot its instructions. There are no messy boot or DOS commands, just a simple 3-step process.

Step 1: Locate the name of the file that is causing your problems.

Step 2: Decide if you want to copy, move or delete the file.

Step 3. Choose a destination for moving the file, or a new file name for the rename option (this option won't appear if you are deleting a file).

Well technically just delete the file using MoveOnBoot and then restart your computer! It totally works! I used to have IM Names too.
