I'd say go to ADd/Remove programs, and chose Add/Remove Windows Components. Uncheck MSN and okay/apply your way out of there.

Default Re: MSN Explorer Uninstall

it's not under the straight add/remove programs. It's under the Add Remove Windows Components option. It's an extra step, not the default window. i have removed it from enough systems to know where i can remove it. It's in the same location where you can add/remove the games, outlook express, and other options default to windows (calculator, screen magnifier...).
