I've changed the subject line to reflect the subject. There is no way that JAWS could be starting Windows Messenger when it starts. JAWS does not control this in any way.

I am using Jaws 7.1 and have Windows XP Home. When I run Jaws it starts the 
Windows Messenger which I have turned off everywhere else. How can I fix this 
problem. It is causing Outlook Express to crash. If I use End It All and stop 
Windows Messenger from running then Jaws also stops.  That is very likely why 
Outlook Express and Jaws crash when I switch users and further why the Log On 
screen for Outlook Express thinks it wants me to select an identity even when I 
am not near the computer.
When I start Window Eyes the Windows messenger does not automatically start.
Is there a fix for this problem or is it becoming a requirement to run Windows 
Messenger when using JAWS? Certainly hope not!
