How can I stop Windows Live Messenger issuing alerts every minutes, hours and days of the year? I don't use it.

I do not use Windows Live Messenger, but he insists on the display of alerts telling me to connect. Why it does this and how can I stop without causing problems in other areas? I know nothing about it except that the people who try to contact me (I guess) can do it without going through channels such as email or telephone.

I assume you have Windows Live Messenger, because you have installed the Windows Live Essentials.
If so, a brief explanation...
Windows Live Essentials includes some programs that can be installed or NOT, must be installed. You can choose whoever you want.

Now, you have 2 options...

1. you can disable. He will remain in the system but inactive.

2. you can purely and simply uninstall it, and it will be out of the system.

RE: Disable Messenger
Open MSN Messenger > at the top, click on tools > click Options > column to the left, click on Sign In > straight column, uncheck all boxes > click OK done wnhen.

RE: Uninstall Messenger

Start button > in the search box, type programs and features > press the Enter key. Scroll down to Windows Live Essentials > right click it > click on uninstall...
Follow the guests but be careful to screen > it will ask you what program to uninstall. Select Windows Live Messenger. Follow the prompts.
