Well it goes back quite some months. It has something to do with windows messenger. Could it be, because i put a command in start run box to disable the windows messenger. Its just i couldnt stop it from starting using msconfig, or anything else. Below is what most people recommend to get rid of this windows messenger junk. Is there away to stop these errors now, or will i just have to live with them and if i do have to, will they cause any computer problems.

Start/run (you can either type or copy and paste this in the run box) RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove press ok, and now it will ask you to restart the computer and select ok, msmsg.exe will be gone.
