Deleting System Softwares from XP

• XP hides some system software you might want to remove, such as Windows Messenger, but you can tickle it and make it disgorge everything.
• Using Notepad or Edit, edit the text file /windows/inf/sysoc.inf, search for the word 'hide' and remove it.
• You can then go to the Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel, select Add/Remove Windows Components and there will be your prey, exposed and vulnerable.
