This is very easy to stop. those pop-ups do not concern
your Windows Messenger service. They are used through it
for Administrators to send network wide messages to all
users on their network.
To disable the messages but continue using your Windows
Messenger as you normally would do the following: Right-
click the My Computer Icon on your desktop and click on
Manage...The Computer Management box will appear...Look
for Services and Applications over on the left
side...Click on the little cross beside it to open
it...Once open click on the Services and you should see
all the services your system is capable of running on the
right side of the screen...On the right side of your
screen, look for Messenger and double click it to bring
up the Messenger Properties box...Near the bottom of the
box you'll see Service Status: Stop that, then right
above where it says Startup Type: Set that to
Disabled...Then click on the Log On tab at the top of the
Messenger Properties box...On this tab, go down near the
bottom and click Disable...That's it...You shouldn't get
anymore pop-ups through Messenger but still be able to
use your Windows Messenger as you normally would....Good
Luck
