Windows Messenger is needed in XP for various stuff related to (MSN) Messenger. Just as MSIE is a part of the OS (roughly speaking), Windows Messenger is part of MSN Messenger on XP...

MSN Messenger does not have his own API, it uses the one from Windows Messenger. Thus removing Windows Messenger will render not only some features of MSN Messenger totally useless, it will also cripple and break many addons and other Messenger related programs.

There is a reason why you can't simply uninstall Windows Messenger on XP like you can with any other program. And it isn't because MS wanted to be a bitch and pester their users.
