Does anyone know how to disable those windows message pop-up.
Somebody told me there was a way in your windows messanger setting to disable them.I have a pop-up blocker but it only works halfass.

hi. i found the IN-WINDOWS fix for XP. (not sure about 2000 but you can try)

first go to control panel -----> administrative tools

click on the shortcut to services.

in the list. look for Messenger, double click on it. you'll come to a screen that says Messenger Properties (Local Computer) look below and look for Startup Type:

go into the list and select: Disabed

restart your computer. and you will never see them again
