This is what AOL Suggests you do

Who Is At Risk?
Anyone who has a connection to the Internet and who is
using Windows XP/2000/98/95 with this networking feature
installed.

To Disable the Messenger Service Manually:
-- Click on the Start button in the taskbar
-- Open Control Panels
-- Go to "Administrative Tools" (XP users may need to go
to "Performance and Maintenance" first,
then "Administrative Tools")
-- Double-click on "Services"
-- Scroll down to "Messenger"
-- Double-click on "Messenger"
-- Change the Startup type to "Disabled"
-- Click "Stop" to stop the service

To Re-Enable Manually:
Follow the above steps, but change the Startup type
to "Automatic," then click "Apply," then click "Start"
under Service Status.

Note:
You must be logged on as an Administrator for the
automatic fix to work.
