   Start, settings, control panel, administrative services. Find Messenger, select stop. Choose disabled in drop down box. Select ok. Problem solved.
   
   Should be disabled by service pack 2, which means your Windows Updates are out of date. Keep them current.

   Yup, with modem it does suck, you could have ordered it on CD for the cost of shipping. Good idea just ot have it around. Glad it worked out.
