If its windows messenger service, i dunno if any of the spy programs check for that.

just turn it off you dont need it, do

go to the " start / run " menu
type- >
services.msc

then look for "messenger" service and disable it, nothing really needs it.
(right click it, select properties then set the startup type to disabled)
after you do that, right click 'messenger" again and select "stop" if it is still running

This is not the same as MSN messenger, so dont worry about disabling that
