When I log off msn messenger, why do I still get messages after?

Are you sure you're logging off and not just minimizing?  Try closing the program altogether...a lot of them just minimize and look like they're closed.\n\nAre you getting messages after the program is closed or when you log back on?  It might take some time for other to see the log off due to delay in tranmission.  I know that Yahoo allows offline messages that you see the next time you log in.  I didn't think MSN did that, but I haven't used it in a while and it could be one of the new features.

you need your own computer.  if you have this already, then setup password protect on your account.  then lock your computer when you're not using it.  your messenger conversations are saved on your computer, you can delete the history of the conversation, not through internet options though.

Removing MSN Messenger in Win XP\n\nThere are some programs we just don't want, specially when Microsoft force them upon us, one such as the damn Messenger program that sticks to the system try, waiting to catch unwanted calls and virus.\n\nThat's right: MSN Messenger got it's own load of virus. There are ways to remove them, but better still is to delete the whole problem, Messenger itself.\n\nMicrosoft has made it as hard as possible to remove it from your system. Both MSN Messenger and MSN Explorer not only take up space on the system, but Messenger also runs in the background at startup, stealing precious RAM and resources.\n\nMessenger does not appear in the Add/Remove Programs applet in the Control Panel.  In order for it to show up there, you must first edit the file named sysoc.inf.  This file can be found in a folder named INF, which is a subfolder of the Windows folder (or in some cases the winnt folder, depending on how your OS was installed).  You can open that file in notepad.  Look for the following line:\nmsmsgs=msgrocm.dll,OcEntry,\nmsmsgs.inf,hide,7\nand remove the word "hide" while leaving the commas on place. Close and save the file, and then open the Add/Remove Programs applet in the Control Panel, so that you can remove it like any other program.\n\nEven more Win XP to tweak

Re-installing yahoo messenger will defenitely solve your problem. But dont give "Repair" or "Custom" While uninstalling. Choose "Automatic" and uninstall.\n\nNOTE:\nThe log files in which your IM conversations are stored will also be deleted when you uninstall. You are adviced to take a backup copy of it before uninstalling so that you dont miss any important notes saved in conversation log.\n\nI am not responsible for any loss or damage.

Uninstall the messenger from remove programs in the control panel. Then reinstall the messenger. That usually does the trick.

This is what worked with MSN Messenger:\n1. Open up Messenger\n2. Tools > Options\n3. Preferences\n4. Uncheck "Run Windows Messenger when Windows Starts\n\nOpen up Yahoo Messenger and look for something similar

Open Windows Messenger or MSN Messenger, Go to Tools->Options. Click on the Preferences Tab. Then un-check "Run This program when Windows Starts."\n\n Then If you use Outlook Express also go to tools->options in OE then  uncheck "Automatically log on to MSN Messenger Service. (You may have to do this in Outlook also.)\n\nOr In Windows XP, Navigate to (regedt32): HKEY_CURRENT_USER&#92;Software&#92;Microsoft&#92;Windows&#92;CurrentVersion&#92;Run and delete MSMSGS.

Unless you are signed into Yahoo! the messenger will not activate the message box, if it is opened due to previous sign in. Typically lets say you were signed in and were talking to a friend and then suddenly you cant type and find you were logged out!!\n\nThats normal, all you have to do is to sign in again and you can use the message box. \n\nIf the answer you were looking for is not this, please do add more details, I will attempt to answer the same.\n\n.:Fishie:.
