Chris Lee Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 I have this problem where after I install XP unattendly, Windows Messenger (msmsgs) logs me in. I would like to have a batch/runonce registry to kill it on startup, is there any programs that can do this for me?(I haven't been to this forum for a long long time, so I forgot most of the methods)On XP SP2Thanks for your time.
Chris Lee Posted August 26, 2005 Author Posted August 26, 2005 Ah nevermind.I used the Taskkill.exe that's already available in XP.
InTheWayBoy Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 Watch out for that...if you plan on using XPH, that isn't included with it...only XPP has that.
Cee-Kay Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 Another option is to use 'pskill' by Sysinternals, which is available here.Not only can you terminate processes locally by either Process ID or Name, but you can also terminate processes running on other machines, provided you have access to them of course .
InTheWayBoy Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 Yeah...PsTools rule! Forgot all about pskill though...thanx!
Jito463 Posted August 27, 2005 Posted August 27, 2005 Do you want to just stop MSN Messenger from running or eliminate it complete? If you want to eliminate it (like I always do), use this batch file:RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.RemoveBingo, no more MSN Messenger to bug you.
