How to Remove Windows Live Messenger 2009

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

Have you encounter this problem? After installing the “latest” Windows Live Messenger 2009 but wonder why always getting the error which you cannot sign in? (Unable to sign into Windows Live Messenger – Error 80004005)

With all the frustrations, thought something went wrong with the Internet connection, wrong username / password entered or even WLM’s server is down. You even click on the link provided with the error message to search through Microsoft’s Knowledge Base, followed the instructions given, yet still scratching your head with the same errors.

Okay, in the end, you gave up and wanted to uninstall the software. Wait, where’s the uninstaller? Searching through the Start menu, you even went to C:\Program Files\Windows Live\Messenger to search for the uninstall.exe file. What? Cannot find it?

Here’s a trick I found from this useful blog:

How to uninstall Windows Live Messenger 2009 using RUN
To uninstall Windows Live Messenger, click START, then Run if using Windows XP [operating system]
then [type/copy] the following and press Enter: [it works 100%]
msiexec /x {0AAA9C97-74D4-47CE-B089-0B147EF3553C}

You will notice that the Windows Live will be removed from your “Start” > “All Programs” list.

Edison Chen

Sunday, February 3rd, 2008

edc doesn’t allow commenting, so I’ll just post my comments here.

I always sympathize actors / actresses and celebrities. They sacrifice their privacies for public entertainment. Yes, some of you might say:”It’s their choice to be entertainer. They deserve it!” But can you please appreciate their effort of bringing entertainment to you?

Reading Edison’s latest post made me think that some of the presses are really stupid. Or they just want to sell their papers / magazines?

I don’t care whether all those pictures are real or not. For those who made this photos: you’re professionals for deceiving us. You succeeded for making such chaos. But please, respect.

Even if the photos are real, it’s their private life. It’s none of our business so stop criticizing them! Take care of your own business!

Human VS Computer

You might find this ridiculous when people going mad. But hey, are you (the author) sure it’s because of Microsoft products?

The Golden Compass and My Daemon

Saturday, December 15th, 2007

I found this interesting profile test that match you with a daemon in the story of The Golden Compass. My daemon matched is Tarquin.

I watched this movie on Wednesday (12/12/07) which I think is one of the most interesting movies I have ever watched. It’s full of misery and exciting scene especially when Lyra (Dakota Blue Richards), the main actress of the story, deals with Marisa Coulter (played by Nicole Kidman).

The courage that Lyra gave me is strong. She won’t fear at the situation where dangers are around her. And she’s so smart that she knew Mrs. Coulter cheated her while she told her that she’s her mother.

I think I’m going to buy this novel and read up because I can’t wait to finish the story.

Wanna see my daemon? Go to this link. You can have yours too!
