I have a question about Stop Pop-Up Spam Messages:

Where is the services window located on Windows XP? I don't see it anywhere. I need to disable this stupid pop-up spam. Thank you

To Disable the Messenger Service Manually: -- Click on the Start button in the taskbar -- Open Control Panels -- Go to "Administrative Tools" (XP users may need to go to "Performance and Maintenance" first, then "Administrative Tools") -- Double-click on "Services" -- Scroll down to "Messenger" -- Double-click on "Messenger" -- Change the Startup type to "Disabled" -- Click "Stop" to stop the service To Re-Enable Manually: Follow the above steps, but change the Startup type to "Automatic," then click "Apply," then click "Start" under Service Status. Note: You must be logged on as an Administrator for the automatic fix to work.
