Thanks for the help, hope it works. if its a problem
that spammers are "exploiting" shouldn't the think tank
be worried about fixing whats broken or exploited instead
of plotting and scheming on the next broken windows that
will be released?

P.S. The Trailblazers and Seahawks suck.
 
Hi Charles,

The "Messenger Service" has actually been around for a long time -- Windows NT, Windows 2000
and now Windows XP -- it's only been these past 8 months or so that it's been exploited.
Most likely (and I hope) in the future, this service is turned off by default.

As for the Trailblazers and Seahawks, I have no opinion =).
