Here's a nice user-friendly "How To" on the subject from MS:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/using/howto/communicate/stopspam.asp
The article lists alternative methods to stopping the Spam - aside from the
draconian step of disabling the service.
Some people say that disabling the service won't affect anything - what they
mean is that it is not likely to affect anything if your system is set up
like most people's.
Still, I think that the solution described in the link above is sufficient
to stop the messages without causing more problems down the road.
