To remove MSN Messenger in Windows XP, you have to locate the SYSOC.INF file, located in the \Windows\INF folder-this is a hidden file and folder. Open it in Notepad and locate the line 'msmsgs=msgrocm.dll,OcEntry,msmsgs.inf,hide,7'. Remove the word 'hide' from the line and save the file. After making the necessary changes, you'll be able to see MSN Messenger in the Add/Remove Windows components list. You can then remove it for good.
