Hmmmm. Just copied and ran your run command and then received this error message: Error unregistering the OCX 16442.

If you have the service pack installed it is a bit different now. Try the add remove programs icon in your control panel. Under service pack 1 you use the add/remove windows component button there to remove the messenger. MS added this feature by order of the Justice Department. Sorry I was unclear about the issue with SP1 or no SP1.
