That program is designed to switch off the messenger service running in windows XP or 2k and not actually reffering to Windows Messenger or MSN Messenger...
Its to stop popups that are recieved as a result of this service running.
Wont fix this problem.

Re: Windows Messenger ?
Try this - it will disable the messenger service...
Or -- you could just stop the service in management (if ist 2k or xp)
