Personally I don't use messenger, so I uninstalled it.
It's a real annoyance to me. If another application needs
it installed for some reason, you might want to block it.
That takes some of the microsoft BS out of your work

me" status.
>What does Messenger do when it wants access to the
internet and should I allow it to be set as allow or kept
as ask me. I had it blocked before but think that may not
be the correct thing to do as I need to be sure it
doesn't need access to the computer and internet . Any
help appreciated. I am also running NAV 2003 which uses
Live update and don't know if not running messenger
interferes with that.
