Don't do that. Ever. With any program.
You can remove Windows Messanger by going into Control Panel, then "Add/Remove Programs". Then, after that's open, on the left side of the screen, you'll see buttons that function like tabs. Choose "Add/Remove Windows Components" (or something like that). A list will come up with checkboxes on each item. Just uncheck "Windows Messanger" then click OK. Voila.

Question... (that's what the thread's for, right?)
I've been getting clicking and popping sounds out of my computer speakers (just really noticed it a few days ago, but I haven't been listening to music on my comp for a while). Would this be a speaker problem, or a sound card problem? It's in both speakers (at different times tough, they're not synchronized pops), and I can't tell if it's in the subwoofer too.
I wouldn't mind getting new speakers, but I don't want to get new ones and find out it was a soundcard problem...

yeah i forgot about that part, but it doesn't get rid of all of the files so you have to delete those

Okay, this is seriously annoying the shit out of me. WHY CAN'T I GET INTO MY HOTMAIL ACCOUNT OVER INTERNET EXPLORER?!?! I can get into it through Opera, but not IE. It just give me one of those "Page not found" thingies, and it's friggin annoying. MRAAAH!!! And somehow I think that that's related to my other problem of not being able to get into MSN Messenger. And that's annoying, too. (My computer nerd friend told me that it had nothing to do with Windows Messenger. I wanted to get rid of that, too, anyway. I've had this problem of not getting into MSN waaaaay before I got rid of WM.)
you, Bill Gates!!!

Glad I'm not the only one who cringed when they read that.

I was actually having the same exact problem about a month ago. I didn't do anything, and eventually it slowed down, then finally stopped. So... you could just wait it out, maybe. It's really annoying, though, I know. I wanted to kill someone whenever it did it, cos sometimes it'd be REALLY freaking loud and scare the crap outta me.

Yeah so........I'm back. (I'm sure you didn't realize I was gone)
Got a virus early Thursday morning, ate my harddrive in about 4 seconds, it was NEATO! haha
So....I've lost everything and I'm working on getting the hub back. I'm guessing I'll be in passive mode. I just gotta work on getting the OLP videos back since I have most of the shows on CD.
And HEY - I got PAINT aaaaand a freakin calculator AGAIN!! woo hoo!
