Hi,
I just kept getting a window telling me that I just logged in messenger in
another computer.

I only have one computer from which i connnect to the internet and use
messenger regularly.

Is somebody else can login as me in another computer? how can that be
possible, i do not share my password with anyone.

Please Advise

Greetings,

It sounds like Windows Messenger might be running in the background. You'll simply need to
disable it. To do so, open it up (click Start, then Run, type "msmsgs" and click OK), click
Tools, Options, Preferences tab and uncheck 'Run this Program when Windows starts' or 'Run
Windows Messenger when Windows starts' (depending on version) as well as 'Allow this program
to run in the background' or 'Allow Windows Messenger to run in the background' (depending on
version).

Also, do you have Norton Antivirus installed? Recent versions of Norton Antivirus added a
new "instant messaging scanning" feature, which can conflict with Messenger and cause it to
also keep starting. To stop it, open Norton Antivirus (Right-click on the Norton Antivirus
icon in the System Tray/Notification Area (by the clock), choose 'Open Norton Antivirus'),
click Options, then Instant Messenger then uncheck MSN Instant Messenger or Windows Messenger
(depending on version) and click OK.

I have this same exact problem! So annoying! And can't
figure out how to resolve the issue. Have you gotten a
response on this?
