I’ve even tried uninstalling the software, as I don’t use it. Never wanted to. Now I definitely don’t want to! I can’t believe nobody else has replied to this, at least to comiserate. I hope someone comes up with an answer soon. MSN is on a lot of people’s black-lists on other message boards I’ve been on looking for an answer!
