Ever wished for the MSN Messenger System Tray Icon to disappear?
No matter how hard you try, it always creeps up again after the system reboot. There is a perfect solution if you wish to remove it as of all. A simple command exists which would remove the messenger from the tray as a whole. I do not emphasize this as another Microsoft Vulnerability, but, it is, as the end-user is the one being harassed(read as bugged).
The simple steps the user has to perform are:
1. Go to Windows Start -> Run
2. Type or else copy and paste the following command into the Run Dialog Box:
“RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove”
Note: Without Quotes
Its done.
To confirm, just restart the system and pronto, No More Bugging Icon.
Pretty easy, isn’t it?
An alternate method to remove MSN Messenger is suggested here.
