is there a reason why this program keeps running in the background even
though i have uninstalled Messenger???

Its bloody annoying especially when it causes the PC to slow right down and
almost crash!!!!!


I dont use messenger as its unsafe and totally unreliable.
so having uninstalled it i dont expext it to run in the background even
after i have selected end process in task manager.....


Please advise as to what and how i can stop this nuisance




TIA
