My sister got one of those msgr-name.com viruses , and she is unable to change her name, i have removed the file related to it, but im not sure what else to do sorry. (Search returned no results)

install antivirus and scan the entire harddrive for viruses.
i recommend Kaspersky Antivirus, check it out
http://www.kaspersky.com/

Try this:
1. Unsinstall WLM.
2. Remove the "MSN Messenger"-folder in your "Program Files" folder. (or similar)
3. Install WLM again.

Does it work?

I will try it out when i get hold of her computer vikke thanks.

I think the virus you have is "IM-Names virus"
