>:(i fuckin hate spyware! ive had loads of pop ups come up on my desktop recently telling me ive got spyware so go to www.scan-fix.com to get rid of it! Cheeky fuckers, its their spyware in the first place. So, i sent them an email basically telling them that every time their spyware gives me a pop-up message, im gonna send them 10,000 (use a software prog to send multiple emails with one click) abusive emails spamming their inbox. this is was they said... If you are experiencing pop-up messages , Please understand we are not the ones causing these messages to be sent. We have listed our software on several Affiliate based internet marketing sites. Some affiliates have chosen unpopular methods of advertising our software. The following instructions will tell you how to stop these messages from appearing. The pop up / message is caused by the Windows Messenger Service . You can disable the Messenger service by completing the following: Click Start - Run Type: services.msc , Click OK Find Messenger Service in the list of services Double Click Messenger Click Stop set Startup Type: to Disabled Click Ok so basically, theyve just told me for free how to disable this pop-up service where gulible victims pay a fortune to these tossers to get rid of a problem they put there The mind boggles
