Lately now, I've been getting this style popup, which is even more annoying than the other window (with pictures) style. After a few of these, I get another message from a popup killer for sale.

I used to get them from "classmates.com" and the like, but these are more like the spam mail content. This one, and lose weight, grow hair, etc.

Anybody else getting their fill of spam in this way?? I'll need a popup killer right away. :mad: :mad:

:ax :spam3

in XP you can turn those off

control panel/ admin tools/services/ click messenger disable that service

i don't know the steps for it in 2000, but it should be similar

yes that's true..it can come back on again. I have found that if you follow this proceedure tho, it doesn't start back up again unless you reset it to.

Click on the "Start" button.
Right-Click on "My Computer"
Choose "Manage" from the menu that appears.
In the left column Highlight "Services and Applications"
In the right column Double-Click on "Services".
Double-Click on the service called "Messenger".
Click the "Stop" button to stop the service.
Change the "Startup Type:" to "Manual"
Click "Apply".
Click "OK".
Close "Computer Management"
