Disabling messenger service can be a good idea the problem
ads but it do's not solve the real problems of a larger
problem

The real problem is open ports that allow unwanted traffic
into the computer
Disabling messenger do' nothing for the open ports You
would need afire wall that controls traffic
The above solution will not work if you have AOL as it is
not compatible with windows XP internet connection fire
wall [ ICF ] .If you have AOL contact AOL or get a third
party fire wall

Disable messenger Service
Start / control panel , Click administrative Tools ,
Click service .

Go down to messenger
Right Click messenger and select properties .Hit the STOP
button under services status section . Then under start-
up select DISABLE click OK and follow the prompts
