    Well, I am not 100% sure which problem you are having. If you don't want messenger to come on without telling it to then open it. Click Tools -> Options. Click the General tab to the left (if you are running 7.5) Deselect Automatically run Messenger when I log on to Windows.

    If you are talking about Messenger service then read this article on how to disable it. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/security/learnmore/stopspam.mspx

    Good luck and I hope this stops the problem you are having.
