    How have you checked...?

    Most messengers have an icon in the systray (the notification area near the clock).  Check there and close any running messenger(s).

    If that still does not fix the problem, check with the Task Manager (Processes tab).  Look for processes like msnmsgr.exe, msmsgs.exe or similar, then end the process(es) from the Task Manager.
