I had the same problem, it would load no mater what I did. Even when I gave the fucker the three finger salute (ctrl alt del) it would come right back. You can get rid of it the same way I did, uninstall the fucker.

go to Program Files
and remove a folder called messenger
then go to start -> run and type in regedit
once that pops up go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run
and HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run
and there delete the entry leading to messenger startup in both of those
as for xerox folder, i have no clue what is up with that, but i learned to live with that. mine is emply, but still can't be deleted. and if i delete is from other OS it's there when i reboot.
hope that helps

Edit: fixed the registry location

reinstall to see if the uninstall link is there or just delete folder and use easycleaner to get rid of most of the dead registry keys
