Dose anyone know how to get rid of those Grey Pop up boxes that come on to the screen even when the browser is off without a firewall?

I hate them.

Thanks,

ouch... you've been blessed by one of the A55HOLE websites... there is a registery entry and likely a program loaded that you didn't know you loaded that does it...

Got this from the tech tv website:
Stop screen spam
Tucker from Houston, Texas, phoned to ask how to stop Windows Messenger pop-ups in XP.


According to Microsoft, this is a "feature," not a bug. Luckily, you can turn off the service and stop getting these ads.


Right-click My Computer and choose Manage.
Go to Service and Applications and choose Services.
Double-click the Messenger entry.
Choose Disable as the Startup type.
Click Stop and Apply
