Hi all.

I installed Messenger ver. 8.5.1302.1018 on Vista to provide remote support
to family. Now whenever I go to Hotmail via a browser, Live Messenger begins
an install that I cancel. I don't want to install it and have turned off the
Security option to "Open Windows Live Messenger when I click a link on a
webpage that tries to interact with Windows Live Messenger". However, Live
Messenger still attempts to do an install.

Any help is appreciated. Many thanks.
