Removing Windows Messenger
The first thing I do when doing a clean install of XP is remove that pesky Windows Messenger.

The easiest way to do this is through Start > Run and this command:
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove

ha thanks for that, been meaning to look up how to do it, everytime I want to check my mail on my windows box outlook express opens it.

Since they "fixed" (ie it wasnt broken and they broke it) the IMAP support in Opera's built in email client, I use outlook express on windows because it's actually the best windows email client i've used, just windows messenger popping up is annoying
