Open the sysoc.inf file (located in C:Windowsinf)
Remove "hide" from any line which has it (leave all commas)
After a reboot go to Add/Remove Programs -> Add/Remove Windows Components. There should now be more to remove.

If you can't get rid of pesky Windows Messenger using this method, try this... In a DOS box, type :

RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%INFmsmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove

... this should do it
