You can get pop up messages even though your browser blocks it, or you have a pop up blocker. This is due to an hidden Internet server i.e,windows messenger running by default in Windows NT, 2000, XP. It receives and accepts, among other things, unsolicited network messages that causes pop up dialog boxes to appear on the desktop.Internet spammers as well as sites are using this to generate pop up for their own means. However, by using a simple free program shootthemessenger of 22k you can prevent such spam. You can download it from http://www.grc.com/files/shootthemessenger.exe There are so many other free light utilities on http://www.grc.com for securing your computer. |
