How do I get rid of messenger altogether - it's a mess to deal with and freezes continually - who needs it?

I can't get an answer from Yahoo on how to disconnect Messenger. It's causing all kinds of problems with other programs. Microsift tells me Yahoo has a fix, but Yahoo either doesn't know about it or won't tell me. The guys in India have no idea what I'm talking about.

ok go to the start window and fiind the control panel open it and look were it says "add or romove programs". a sreen will appear with al the things u have installed then look for the messenger n click on it once and it will say " change/remove" click on this and follow instructions to remove it hopes it helps :)

Reply:His instructions are correct. That is the way to remove any unwanted program. Be sure you selected all the Yahoo messenger programs.. there are more than one listed in my add/remove window. You need to remove anything that starts with Yahoo to get it all removed. Report Abuse
