How to close a Windows Messenger account.

[lifted]

How do I close my account on Windows Messenger? I'm giving my one old machine to my Aunt and I need to clean it, etc, before I let her have it.

I tried all the options but can't see or firgure out how to do it. CAN it even be done?

If not google uninstall windows messenger. If you uninstall it I would not worry about the account too much.

Thanks man, but I would still like to have it on there, just not with my own account. If I do that, can I re-install it with a blank account? I don't have my XP back-up disc either...can't seem to find it..****....

Okay, I got it now man thanks. I didn't have that SP1 on my XP version. Thats what was confusing me before when I went in to uncheck in "Add/Remove Programs."

Now, hopefully when I run my on-board system restore I can get it back.....sweet deal..

Glad it worked. Don't restore: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/messenger/

just dl it and re-install, the on-board **** will probably screw something up
