what happens if you go to add/remove programs and remove it from the windows components list. does that just remove the shortcuts so you cant open it your self by clicking on it?
As was said before, because of the APIs of Windows Messenger, this is not advised.

What version of Windows Messenger is installed on the computer, and have you tried upgrading it to the latest version?

O.P. RE: Annoying Windows Messenger!
I didn't realise but I only remembered to update to the newest version of WM on the laptop. I have juts downloaded the new version for the PC and I guess I shall wait and see if the problem persists.

Thanks for your troubles.

EDIT: Installed new Windows Messenger on PC and followed Cookie's instructions again but still the problem persists.

A couple of things regarding his instructions though:

When it says 'close windows messenger' does this mean as in close the window or actually exit the application via rightclicking in the task bar?

My Norton Internet Security does not have the option that is specified in his instruction to uncheck scanning of files or whatever it says.

Thanks for all your help anyway, I guess it's not a huge problem, just frustrating:^)
