How do I get rid of windows messenger? (1 Viewer)

[Neil Joseph]

I get messages from people I don't know so I am trying to pemanelty disable this program. I thought I would have found it in the control panel - add/remove programs but it is not listed there.

Go to Start > Run

Then copy and paste this line:

RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%INFmsmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove

^^^Yea why didn't you know that? Microsoft made it so easy for us to get rid of it I'm surprised you didn't know.

Here is where it is:

Control Panel -> add/remove programs -> windows components
Then look for messanger and take it off... also you can take off MSN while your at it..
