I’ve since learned that you can turn this off by un-checking the “ Display MSN Today when Messenger signs in” option still totally unacceptable. This means a pop-up ad every time you boot your computer totally unacceptable. Consider that for most MSN Messenger users, the program loads at start-up. However, I didn’t realize how bad it was until Messenger 5.0 gave me pop-up advertising when it loads ( screenshot). I plan to tell young people this when I get old. I’m not using a shared computer, but this did exactly what I wanted.Įveryone knows the world is going to hell – old people have been telling us this for centuries. In 5.0, I didn’t think it was possible until I stumbled across an obscure setting in the Privacy tab (?) called “ This is a shared computer so don’t display my tabs“. Go to the Tools menu, and toggle the Show Tabs option. In 4.x, turning off the annoying tabs (that I presume no-one uses) was easy.
