I have been recieving spam via the windows messenger
service, I have done some research and have a few
questions.

I am now fully updated will that solve this issue? Will
Microsoft be addressing this issue?

If I disable the windows messenger service will this have
any adverse effects on my system? And is this the best way
to solve this?

I have ZoneAlarm Pro why isnt it stopping this?

Thanks,

Greg
