I use Group Policies (AD in my case) to keep MSN Messenger from launching, and I use Trillian as my messenger. Have you looked at these alternatives?
OP
I guess i'll have to do that too. The problem when i disable messenger is that outlook express loads slow as hell... Any fix for that???
OP
I finally made the jump to trillian, thanks a lot folks, it's great!
OP
Thanks, i did what APK suggested, exactly what i needed. Only problem is there is no such option in outlook express, so i'm stuck with a 30 seconds delay (no biggie, i'll have to live with that).
There was the option "do not logon to messenger at startup" (or something like that), but unchecking it didn't help + that option dissapeared the moment i disabled msn messenger in gpedit.msc.
