Windows XP came with a default Windows Messenger program which had basic features.
The new versions are much better and even after instaling them this old version still stays behind.
Here´s how to remove it.
Go to Control Panel then ADD/Remove Programs ,in the new window click on Add/Remove Windows Components then scroll down to the last item and uncheck Windows Messenger ,click Next and then Finish when done.
It will now be gone from the system.
