Lets hope it stays that way!

I also had a couple of 'abnormalities' since installing Service Pack 3. Mainly a couple of altered settings in Outlook 2003 but nothing to worry about.

hi fusion looked in system configuration utility today and the "msmsgs" is running again in background do you think if i uninstalled windows live messenger ran ccleaner(registry) reboot then make a fresh install of windows live messenger might be the answer ........

Try this Visual Basic Script file from Doug Knox.

. . . >> Remove Windows Messenger

It also gives manual instructions, but personally I'd use the auto version.

A 'Registry backup' is always preferable just in case.
