Go to Start / run / and then type in msconfig. When msconfig comes up click the start-up tab and untick the messenger box. That will keep it from starting when you boot up. You may also have to click the services tab and untick that box as well.

I just used XP Anti-Spy
it works great and gets rid of it all together if you want, along with a few other things you may not want that XP has, and it's just a small little program, but it does alot. |

Inside of msn/windows messenger you can also uncheck the "run program at start-up" option to stop it loading automatically.
