    How Do I Uninstall windows live messenger 9.0?

    Hey, I'm having the same problem as everyone else it seems, with one exception, I can't install the proposed solution, Windows Installer CleanUp Utility 1.0. When I do and try to run it my computer tells my permission has been denied and it says there is a VBScript runtime error. I just really want to uninstall msn 9.0... it's really beginning to bother me that I can't. It's not under the program files, it's not under the removable hardware, it seems deleted from my computer, but whenever i try to reinstall it or an earlier version of msn it tells me I already have it, or a more modern version installed. How do I get rid of this blasted messenger? or, alternatively, how do I reinstall it.

    On a sidenote, the reason I wanted to uninstall it was that I couldn't log on. It just told me that the service was temporarily unavailable. How can I avoid that?

    This version of Messenger can be found under Windows Live Essentials in the Add/Remove Programs list. Once you click that, you can choose which pieces you wish to uninstall.
