Messenger Service

[Jogesh Kumar]

click START --> click RUN --> in RUN

type MSCONFIG and click OK

U'll have SYSTEM CONFIGURATION UTILITY

under that u have tab called STARTUP

click on that and now u'll have lots of programs which
will have check marks in all the options.
Now try to find the messenger program in those options ,
If ur not able to figure out , just expand the LOCATION
and find the option for " WINDOWS MESSENGER " , if u see
that option , uncheck that particular option.
don't worry .. u can guess some options up there and
uncheck those , this is not goin to affect ur computer in
any way. after unchecking some options u've guessed,

click APPLY and click OK/CLOSE
Now it'll ask u to restart the computer ,just restart the
computer.
now chek whether u have the same problem
if so , jus reply me to " "

Thank u
Jogesh , INDIA

That only disables the SYMPTOM not the CAUSE. The OP needs a firewall. Don't
give incorrect advice on this issue
