Choose Windows or MSN version? by chrome_gecko on 09-16-2004 at 04:31 PM

Right, heres my very minor complaint....I know these days we're all meant to have super fast PC's that can run every and more under the sun, 'cept mine done, so heres the problem, and maybe a feature request too!

When i run msgplus, or it autoruns - whatever, i go to task manager and find it runs msmsgs.exe and msnmsger.exe with the result that it runs 3,456kb or something in and around there.  When i kill msgplus.exe msmsgs.exe still runs but when i kill it its dead.  However if i kill msmsgs.exe with msgplus.exe still running, msmsgs.exe manages to come back from the dead, after around 15 seconds...

So what i want to know is, can there be a feature to choose which messenger to apply msgplus to? pretty pretty please, if not for me, for my sanity!!!

im pretty sure msmsgs.exe is windows messinger.
So when you have msmsgs running it means windows messinger is running.

Yep, it is, and i don't like it, i.e. wudn't mind uninstalling it, except msn messenger runs on half the features provided by windows messenger
