2- The technical guy way:
If you want to uninstall windows messenger (it is not msn messenger) you will have to follow these steps:

If you prefer to remove Windows Messenger manually, click Start, Run and enter the following command:

RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove

Note: This will prevent a long delay when opening Outlook Express if you have the Contacts pane enabled. To prevent this, click Start, Run and enter REGEDIT Go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express

Right click in the right pane and select New, Dword value. Give it the name Hide Messenger Double click this new entry and set the value to 2.

This is how I got rid of it. Start-search-all files-more advanced options- make sure hidden files is clicked. the type in msn messenger. Delete all files and folders than come up. After that exit out.Then get rid of the registry keys. (this is VERY dangerous,be very careful messing with the registry) click start-run-REGEDIT...click on hkey local machine-click on software-go down find msn messenger-right click-delete- all keys. *Again this is dangerous. Do exactly as I told you and you will be ok. DO NOT mess with any other registry settings*
