Do these "pop-ups" that are appearing have "Messenger
Service" in their titlebar? If so, what you're seeing is the Messenger service built-in to Windows, *not* Windows Messenger (which are two different things) which spammers are exploiting -- this is not Microsoft, nor can Microsoft control them anymore then they can control spam to your e-mail inbox. To get rid of these pop ups, you'll need to disable the "Messenger Service", click Start, then Run, enter "services.msc"and click OK. Scroll down to "Messenger", select it, right-click and then choose Properties. Under startup type, choose 'Disabled' and then choose the 'Stop' button. After the service is stopped, click OK. Nothing in Windows or any real third-party applications should be effected by this. >-----Original Message----- >How do i stop that annoying MESSENGER SERVICE pop up >window from popping up every 5 mins when im online? >Please some one help me. >Thxs >. > |
