Get rid of netbios messenger spam instantly, for free



Windows messenger spam is annoying, but easy to get rid of. Do not pay for
this service; you can do it easily yourself. This is a reprint from a
newsgroup on the fix to this annoying problem, and it works. Screw the
assholes who want to make money off this exploit, and screw Microsoft for
keeping us all in the dark on how to fix it. Please read the short
instructions carefully to harmlessly turn this feature off:



"What you're seeing is the Messenger service built-in to Windows, not
MSN/Windows Messenger (which is two different things) which spammers are
exploiting -- this is not Microsoft, nor can Microsoft control them anymore
then they can control spam to your e-mail inbox. The 'Messenger Service'
was designed to send quick messages (like you're seeing) across local
networks -- but since the Internet is one large network, it's been exposed
to everyone.
To get rid of these pop ups, you'll need to disable the Messenger
service. Click Start,
and then Run. Type services.msc into the box and click OK. Scroll down to
Messenger, select it by right-clicking it and then choose Properties. Under
subcategory startup type, click on arrow then choose Disabled, then choose
the Stop button. After the service is stopped, click OK. Nothing in Windows
or any real third-party applications should be affected by this."
