1119533 2010-07-16 22:45:00 I have just upgraded to Windows 7 and like it a lot! But I would like to stop that Hotmail window appearing every time I boot up. Can anyone tell me how, please? dcsp (9883)
1119534 2010-07-16 22:47:00 Remove it, if its a program from startup. I cant remember seeing anything about Hotmail, showing up on startup Speedy Gonzales (78)
1119535 2010-07-16 22:48:00 Do you mean Windows Live Messenger ? wainuitech (129)
1119536 2010-07-17 22:42:00 Yes, that's the thing, but I can't seem to find it to uninstall dcsp (9883)
1119537 2010-07-17 23:34:00 To stop it opening on startup do the following.

On the right of messenger is a drop down arrow, expand it and tick " Show Menu Bar" As shown Here (www.imagef1.net.nz) - then go to the menu bar along the top, click on Tools/ Options - in the list on the left click sign in -- then on the right untick the top box, Automatically run windows live messenger when bla bla bla -- Circled here (www.imagef1.net.nz).

Messenger now wont auto run on startup, but it will still run if you double click the icon to launch it.

(I never noticed the drop-down arrow by the ? - thought it was all part of Help!)
