Donna,
If the title bar reads as MESSENGER SERVICE, then it the world famous
Messenger SPAM.
Install a Firewall to prevent the pop-ups. Enable the Internet Connection
Firewall in Windows XP:
Open Network Connections
Click the Dial-up, LAN or High-Speed Internet connection that you want to
protect, and then, under Network Tasks, click Change settings of this
connection.
On the Advanced tab, under Internet Connection Firewall, select one of the
following:
To enable Internet Connection Firewall (ICF), select the Protect my computer
and network by limiting or preventing access to this computer from the
Internet check box.
This blocks the TCP ports responsible for Messenger data tranmissions and
prevents Pop-ups.
