    If you have XP and cant get rid of Windows Messanger , follow these instructions:

    NOTE: where it says (space), that just means one hit of the spacebar.

    Quit all your apps and close browser (copy and paste this to notepad or word document) or this wont work. Go to Start menu and hi the run button. Then type "cmd" and press OK.

    Thype this command into the window
    Rundll32(space)advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection(space)%windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove

    If you still get a prompt after you enter the command, just read the instructions and follow them. tell me if yall have any problems.....

    Be careful using this if you use things like Hotmail, .Net features, or MS's Passport functionality... you may have some issues afterwards. :)

    That is indeed an excellent sig, Drew. I was so upset with myself that I didn't see that movie a second time when it came out to the dollar theaters...perhaps I will rent it tomorrow.
