Hi Jo,
Thank you for your answer! Yes it does resolve partially my problem:
WinMessenger does not start automatically anymore.
BUT there is still one problem: it still has in memory my account and, more
annoying, my password.
=> When I open Windows Messenger, it will sign in with my account without
asking for ID (n)or password. As this is not MY personal computer, I don't
want this to be so.
Thank you in advance for your next answer!
