Tinker Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 Go to C:\Program Files\Messenger and rename the Messenger folder. Now here is what I have C:\Program Files\Messenger1. Works great for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlmondScar Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 As soon as windows starts do ctrl + alt + del and close win msnger. Youre not removing it, and its not in the road, so there ya go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
