Open Admin tools>services scroll down to messenger service and disable it.

The fact that you are getting these popups tells me that you are in need of
a firewall try this one or turn on the windows firewall.

Thanx for your quick response. Haven't had a problem since, I was getting
about 50 or 60 every minute or so, it was really annoying,
Thank you again, Cj

It's also an indication that you don't have Service Pack 2. You need SP 2.
