Messenger Pop-ups

Saturday, July 5, 2003 by BoXXi | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I just re-installed my OS, (XP Pro) and since I did, I'm getting lots of irritating pop-ups in MSN Messenger. Does anyone know how to get rid of them? I would be very grateful if anyone has the answer.

Incidentally, installing "Adaware 6.0" didn't stop them.

Thanks in advance guys........BoXXi

This is just another annoying problem Windows 2000/XP has that better built alternatives like Linux does not have.

Who cares? If you like Linux so much then stick with it.

I use both Linux and XP. I download wallpaper for both, and themes for XP here.

I never got Pop Up's untill my XP crashed.
After a reinstall I got Blasted!
Pop Up Stopper Free edition workes GREAT!
I also recomend Spyware Blaster & Ad Aware 6 both good programs.

hmm i shot my messager

i didnt use any programs either, just access the admin services, the services, find "messager" in services list, then disable it. "stop service" will stop it, but only til next reboot. make sure you disable not stop service.

now.. NOW THE MESSAGER IS DEAD
