Hello
As I have a laptop that I use at several different location, and hence my radiolan is getting internet connection at different locations, my messenger alway attempts to login as soon as it detects a internet connection. This is very irretating ‘casue i dont want to be signed in all the time. A solution to this would to close messenger from systemtray, but since Im using Outlook express it opens up messenger to the system tray(but not loggin in, this happens next time it detects a internet connection). Another option would be to uninstall messenger and use trillian instea, but im using the the ‘video conference’ quite alot for work and Trillian dont have that feature yet…
So my question is. Is there a way to have messenger in the systemtray as not signed in AND not to have it automaticly log in when detect internet connection?
Probobly not! It feels like a typicle Microsoft thing….:mad:
Cheers /Andy:)
