Hi Devin84,

Sounds like you'll need a trip to the Spyware/Hijack Forum & post a log ... you've posted a log before so I omitted the How to ... Link.

Hi,

Those are messenger service pop ups.

Here's how to disable the service and the pop ups.

Windows 2000
1.Click Start-> Settings-> Control Panel-> Administrative Tools->Services
2.Scroll down and highlight "Messenger"
3.Right-click the highlighted line and choose Properties.
4.Click the STOP button.
5.Select Disable or Manual in the Startup Type scroll bar
6.Click OK


Windows XP Home
1.Click Start->Settings ->Control Panel
2.Click Performance and Maintenance
3.Click Administrative Tools
4.Double click Services Scroll
5.down and highlight "Messenger"
6.Right-click the highlighted line and choose Properties.
7.Click the STOP button.
8.Select Disable or Manual in the Startup Type scroll bar
9.Click OK

But you can still post a Hijackthis log to get rid of other nasties you might have.

 

Thanx for the help Mr Hrmm!
