not the whole program just her password

Try to open Windows Messenger, and then sing out... After, maybe, there is a "Forget me" opition...
You can change the opitions of the Windows Messenger to not conect on sing in...

yes that works form stopping it from starting (confused??) on startup but when ever someone starts it she is then signed that means that anyone can access he account

Try this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310705

just enter a non existing email address like:
asjdha@alsjdh.omg
and make up a password...
and set that account to login automatically...
not the most beautiful solution but it works...
