Please do not have Live Messenger in your start-up menu. It constantly updates itself. That hard-drive grind is the ultimate in annoyance!
I'm pretty sure the previous nags said a new version was AVAILABLE for download... today's dialog said it had [already] BEEN downloaded and needed to be installed... so someone at Mickeysoft can obviously control this kind of thing, I guess with some sort of script that updates when it phones home.

Imagine if the Windows Update system ever got hacked?
