Uninstalling Windows Messenger

Hi, is there anyway I can remove windows messenger because whenever I log onto my computer, it runs even though it isn't on the taskbar and I use MSN messenger. Or is there at least a way it won't be used everytime I turn the computer on

Go to C:\Program Files\ find the folder "Messenger" and rename it to anything else like "MessengerSux" or something of that nature. It will ask if you if *REALLY* want to rename because it will make something useless, just say "Yes".
