When you install Windows XP Service Pack 1 (SP1), Windows adds a new feature that is named "Set Program Access and Defaults" to the Add or Remove Programs tool in Control Panel. You can use this feature to remove Windows Messenger from the Start menu, the desktop, and other locations. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:A riskier method I guess, but I think I used this to disable it:
Do a start/run and use this command to modify the registry:
