Microsoft MSN Annoyances

This service is completely annoying. There is no need to have this service auto starting when you can start it manually when you run the client. Ways of disabling it from starting up on system reboot, or system start. 1) Go into MSN Messenger and select Tools/Options/Preferences ... Uncheck the following boxes. "Run this program when Windows starts" and "Allow this program to run in the background". 2) This service will keep running unless you disable "NAV 2003, disable Instant Messenger monitoring.". It took me forever to figure out number two.

Unreal...
