How can I delete a Messenger account

Does any one know how I can delete a name from the sign in page of the latest Messenger Live.
If I click on it at all, it just signs in

Comments

  • open up msn live messenger, go into tools > options and then click on the general tab and it give you options to enable or disable in the form of tick boxes.

  • I can't find the right thing in tools

    My oh doesn't live here any more so I want to delete his account from messenger on my computer

    Can I do that?
  • make sure it cannot sign in on start up in tools then pull up the sign in screen (load up) the software. Then untick all the boxes and click on "Forget Me" and that should remove the details from your system.

  • no you need to sign in to delete it i believe.
    the only other way you could try is tool internet options,auto complete then remove all passwords and usernames- not sure if it works but might do
