Turn off the Messenger Service . . . in XP go to the Control Panel, d-click
Administrative Tools, d-click Services. Scroll down until you come to
Messenger (Service), click once to highlight, right-click, select Properties
and in the dialog box, change Startup Type to disabled. Restart your
computer and those Messenger Ads wil be gone for good.
The Messenger Service serves no purpose outside of a networked environment
where some administrator needs to send pop up messeges to users . . . or
Spammers wish to sell you a products to stop those same messages they send.
