The Yahoo messanger is really getting on my nerves. Inspite of removing it "n" number of times from my start up list, whenever I use messanger it automatically adds itself to start up again. Tried to remove using HijackThis but same result. Posting the Hijack this log along:
I tried removing the entry in red. Any suggestion guys?
