I am getting barraged with annoying instant messenger pop-
ups ever since I got my new HP computer. I am trying to
find out if this is through windows messenger or MSN
messenger. I've deleted both programs but still get
these darned things - dozens each day and I'm fed up and
put out! HELP PLEASE!

This is all you need to do
To turn off the messenger service in XP:
1.Click on the Start button and open the control panel.
2.Open the Performance and Maintenance control panel and go to
Administrative Tools.
3.Now double-click on Services, then scroll to Messenger.
4.Double-click Messenger and click Stop to stop the service.
5.Change the startup type to Disable
