I figured out How to STOP "Windows Messenger" from Starting when I start
Outlook 2002...
In Outlook 2002, Select Tools->Options
Under the "Other" Tab, UNCHECK the CheckBox next "Enable Instant
Messenging In Microsoft Outlook" and then APPLY and Click OK.
I would guess that somewhere in the WinXP Registry is an Association to
the "Windows Messenger" program to be used in Outlook 2002 (I don't know
where, yet).

I have the same problem. It's usually when I start outlook that the
older version starts up but it doesn't automatically log on. I don't
know how to fix it because I have even tried to yet.

of Messenger
I was wondering if anyone else has seen this issue with Windows
Messenger...
The other day I got a Notification from Windows Messenger (I use it
along with other IM programs) that there was an UPDATE available for the
program. I agreed to download and install the update and it appeared to
install successfully.
The problem is that it apparently installed a 2nd Windows Messenger
program. The 2nd Version is called MSN MESSENGER 5.0 and they both try
to start when my computer starts.
Has anyone else run into this issue?
MSN Messenger seems to have some features that are slightly improved
over Windows Messenger, but How do I uninstall Windows Messenger?
Also, Everytime I Start Outlook 2002, The Windows Messenger trys to
start. How do I get Outlook 2002 to start looking at MSN Messenger for
its IM Association?
Thanks & I hope everyone had a Great Thanksgiving... :-) ---Paul
