Windows 2000, Windows NT, and Windows XP all include the Messenger Service. It's enabled by default. Messenger allows system admins to send little messages to everyone on a network, alerting them when the server is going down, ect. The service makes a lot of sense on a corporate network, but home users don't need it. Here's how to disable it:
1. Right-click My Computer and click "Manage".
2. Click "Services and Applications".
3. Click "Services".
4. Scroll down to "Messenger" and right-click the entry.
5. Choose "Properties"
6. Under "Service status:" click STOP.
7. Under "Startup Type:" choose DISABLE
8. Click OK.
thanks thats wat i needed...
