the amount of people when I tell them I'm learning to drive who say they wouldnt pass the test now is shocking.
I'm all up for a retest every 5 years.
also, in tools > options > preferences (on msnger 4 main window) remove the tick from "allow this program to run in the background"
That should sort it, I think you can remove it completely from the Add/Remove Programs > Add/Remove Windows Components. section of that...
The filesize also is checked on vBulletin. I'm sure Turkey can tell us what its set to, so along with size, in height and width, also size in terms of kilobytes will matter too :)
