I am 1) running XP 2002 SP 1, 2) have Norton Internet
Security 2004 Installed, 3) subscribed to a DSL service
provider. So far my system is secure against hacking.
However, I sometimes get a pop-up window titled Messenger
Service. The dialog announces a message purportedly
from 'Microsoft Networks' about a Microsoft Security
Bulletin. The dialog has an Okay button but I do not
click it for fear of putting a virus or trojan horse
program on my pc. I ignore the dialog and restart my
pc. Is the Messanger Service part of XP services? Is
there a way to disable the Messanger Service or disable
thse pop-ups? Is this related to the Windows Messanger
in the forum by that name?
Thanks, Ned
