sfaJack 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2004 I recently got a new machine and freed myself from the shackles of Win ME. I'm liking XP a whole lot, but there are a couple of annoyances that I can't figure out how to fix: 1. Windows messenger: how can I get rid of/disable this thing? I think it's a cause of some security risks, and as far as I can tell, it serves no purpose whatsoever (I don't have a home network). 2. The menus in various programs/Windows: most all of them "hide" certain features/applications with a little downward-pointing double arrow that I have to click on to show all the "hidden" items. This is getting quite annoying because it never fails that the feature I want to use is hidden under these arrows. Is there any way to disable these things? Thanks in advance.

Guest I'm That Damn Zzzzz Report post Posted March 4, 2004 Get Shoot the Messenger to stop Windows Messenger. Completely free. About the double arrows: I think most toolbars are stretchable, click on the gripper bars and move them around at will. I'm not sure though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
