Is it possible to DEACTIVATE! Windows Messenger? I keep
getting IM's from my son's ladyfriends - without him being
logged on to MSN.

Hi Jimi,

I assume that Windows Messeneger is automatically logging in through your son's account. To prevent
this from happening, you may want to remove your son's passport profile form your user account. This
can be done by typing CONTROL KEYMGR.DLL at Start >> Run and selecting your son's passport username
and hit remove. This will dis-associate your son's passport profile from your user account and hence
will prevent Windows Messenger from automatically signing him in.
