Greetings,

If you want to completely remove them, simply close Messenger, download and run this .reg
file:
http://messenger.jonathankay.com/dow...isabletabs.reg

Depending on what you mean by wallpaper, the background to the contact list is lvback.gif in
the \Program Files\MSN Messenger folder.

Of course not, there is no background by default, hence no file

Works fine here, perhaps it's not a valid GIF?
