357122 2005-05-21 00:47:00 I have MSN version 4.7 and version 7 on my computer.
How do I delete version 4.7?

357123 2005-05-21 01:16:00 They are two different programs, not versions. Windows Messenger 4.7 is different to MSN Messenger 7. You can completely uninstall Windows Messenger if you like.

Explanation of the differences, and how to uninstall it (www.mvps.org).

357124 2005-05-21 04:47:00 You don't need to uninstall it. just close it (make sure it's out of the running processes) and then add a letter (says a) to the Messenger folder (c:\program files\Messenger ... so it looks like this (c:\program files\aMessenger). That will stop it from running :) ProMaz (34)

LOLz.. now that's a VERY CLEVER trick! :thumbs:

* I use both WM and MSN at work. We have over 20 Exchange IM servers spread across the world and WM is used in our corporate environment to support the uses of IM servers and SIP servers. I only use MSN to chat with friends and families while at work.

Hope that helps
