    there are a few applications that will and cannot be removed via Add/Remover Programs for some reason, I have successfully deleted "Windows Messenger", the really old one by selecting RUN and running a command, but I cannot find a way to delete MSN Explorer

    Windows components are usually installed with the operating system when it's installed. Some are hard to eliminate completely as they are integrated with the OS. But you can disable them some times. I did that with WMP by altering the registry.
