I've also read in several places that you should disable the 'messenger'
service that runs by default in XP. This is not the Instant Messenger but a
program that listens for network alerts and pops them up on your screen. Go
to control panel, administrative tools, services, and look for the messenger
thing on there and disable it.

> Please, please, someone help me with this. My brother used our computer
and we don't know how he did it, but wound up getting some adult content
popping up everywhere on our computer. I am so frustrated because it's not
going away. My brother told us he panicked and did some kind of system
restore but some stuff kept popping back up like on Favorites and on the
desktop and some global dialer started popping up as well. Well, it's crazy.
I've tried deleting everything but when you start up the computer again it
keeps coming back. I'm desperate!! Can someone tell me the best way for me
to get my computer back to normal.
