Do you have windows XP? Are you getting pissed off at the constant pop-ups that advertise either someone's private webcam or a program on how to disable this service for a small fee? Well, screw that. I found a little something that shows you how to get rid of it.

1.Click Start button on your toolbar.

2.Click Run...

3.Enter "Services.msc" (without quotation marks) and click OK.

4.Browse the list till you find "Messenger" in Name column

5.Right click and click "Stop" on the pop up menu. That is not all. If you don't want the service to start the next time you start your computer, continue with the following steps:

6.Double click it. The Messenger Properties (Local Computer) dialog box comes out.

7.Choose "Disable" in "Startup type" drop down box.

8.Click OK.

Trust me, it works. It won't blow up your computer.
