Cant uninstall MSN. Help.?

Question:
Right I have a really new version of MSN, were the display pictures are on left hand side of the chat window. And I hate it. I didnt download it. My dad did. And I REALLY REALLY want the older ... version of MSN back. But when I try to uninstall it. I cant. I've checked and rechecked the add/remove programmes list and Windows Live Messenger isnt there. How do I find it and uninstall this horrible MSN? Please help me.
Answer:
hi
try first to uninstall from the control panel
Start
control panel
add&remove programs
'WINDOWS LIVE ESSENTIALS'
remove

if it doesn't work
You have to use this program created by microsoft to remove WLM 9.0 beta3/WLM 2009
Windows Installer CleanUp Utility 1.0
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/e...
once started search in the programs list for "(All Users) Windows Live Messenger [14.0.5027.0908]"
mark it with a mouse click, then click on the 'remove' button'

windows live messenger 8.5
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/detai...

get older versions here

Plus live 4.81

NOTE: if you are trying to install WLM 8.5 and having problems, using Windows Installer CleanUp Utility search and remove "(all User) Windows Live Beta (all programs) [14.0.5025.904]"

if it doesn't work use "ZAPMESSENGER"
A regular issue faced is the dreaded "Another version of the product is already installed", "Your computer has a newer version of MSN Messenger than the one you are trying to install", "Your computer has a newer version of Windows Live Messenger than the one you are trying to install", "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" and similar messages.
