It works, its really that what i want.
Please be very aware that patching Messenger like that is risky:
The modified file is VERSION dependant and LANGUAGE dependant.
It will only work on a very specific version and language of Messenger.
Moreover, it still does not provide a solid way to prevent people from 'ticking' those checkboxes. It will always be possible to change those things using the registry for example.
Also, remember that settings are stored per-user. So even if the email addresses of those other people are not stored, their settings still are. Thus modifying Messenger like that will not
'keep your computer clean' either.
A far better method would be to write a small application which removes the settings, including the stored account emails, of everybody else except yours AFTER Messenger is closed.
----------------------------------------
ahmetgns, you better make a skin instead of modifying the Messenger resources like that.
Or (if you don't want to depend on Plus!) program a patch which hides
(do NOT remove elements) the user's msgres.dll file.
