Install Messenger 6 but stop it running


Recommended Posts

I install Messenger 6 fine, but I don't want it to pop-up everytime you start windows, as it does by default.

Basically I want to install it unattended but with the following options unchecked by default

Tools >> options >> General:

* Automatically run Messenger when windows starts

* Allow automatic sign in when connected to the internet

* Display MSN Today when Messenger signs in

anyone know how to do this?

Thanks

Wahey! :)

Using RegShot mentioned in a previous post I was able to find that the registry keys are

The default automatically running:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\AppSettings: 62 02 00 00

Not automatically running:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\AppSettings: 22 04 00 00

I'll check if the same settings work for all users.
