    Live Messenger Start up problem.


    I have Windows 7 Pro x64 and my wife uses Live Messenger for video chatting with her family.
    I keep un-checking the box for Messenger in the msconfig/startup box.
    But every time my wife manually starts Messenger, msconfig gives birth to a new check box and Messenger starts up at boot again.
    How can I just use Messenger when we want to without it going live in msconfig anymore?
    Thanks.

    Hiya pal :)

    open live messenger...go to the tools tab, click it, and go down to
    "options", and when it opens select the "general tab", then "uncheck" where
    it says " automatically run windows live messenger when i log onto windows.
    click apply, then ok.
