HOW TO STOP MESSENGER POP-UPS!

[Comp Guy]

My god, you really need to brush up on practical usage of a hyperbole.
That was not a hyperbole.
The most it could be was sarcasm. If it was, you might want try to make it
appear so in the future.

P.S. all that name calling does is make you seem like a 5 year-old.

And please explain how my logic is faulty ). You say one thing -quite
bluntly-, but yet you mean something else?

Yes, your post may have had the intention of being insulting, but it also
seemed like you wanted Pcyr to apologize.

--
Please be polite.

Ummm...whatever you say Cable Guy. Your logic is irrefutable.

Moose

p.s. You might want to add this word to your vocabulary so that in your
much anticipated future posts you may be able to avoid coming across as a
dimwit.

exaggeration, embellishment, embroidery, hyperbole, boasting, inflation,
bravado, magnification, overstatement.

"In other words, there is absolutely no way for you to correct your rude
behavior other than for you to apologize"

Sounds like you wanted him to apologize.

to

elicit an apology?
My post was meant to be nothing other than insulting.

Moose




You expect him to apologise after you talk like that? Sounds hypocritical
to me.

After you answer almost every post about these pop-ups, then you can talk.
I wonder how many users have come to this NG, not bothered to run a
search,
but instead of asking the worlds biggest FAQ, they see this, and their
problem is solved.

Wonder why MS hasn't removed this like they do to other top posts? (That
was a rhetorical question BTW.)

That language is not helpful one bit, and doesn't exactly add any support
to

Despite all your idiotic mutterings, the simple fact is that you post
dated
your innanities so we all have to see this tripe at the top of our
readers
for months to come and be reminded that usenet is overpopulated with
moronic
cases of arrested development. Also, no one gives a simple rat's ass
about
your educational pursuits and your need to post such drivel does not
raise
your esteem in this ng one iota. In other words, there is

absolutely

no
way
for you to correct your rude behavior other than for you to apologize,
admit
you're wrong, wrong, wrong and then contemplate doing yourself in and
post
a
daily diary of that contemplation so we can encourage your progress.
Now
get started you little prig.

You didn't "prove" jack cable guy. You just made a pitiful attempt to feel
superior by arguing about an inconsequential semantic (a common trait of
small minds), and you are so hopelessly literal minded that anything I have
to say is taken as being serious, literal and consequential. You are a
thick buffoon and a crushing bore.

Puff out your chest like some neurotic prairie chicken, regale your
significant other with tales of your superior debating talents and joyously
anticipate getting laid as he swoons, wide-eyed and admiring of your giant
intellect. Usenet is overrun with morons like yourself, and thus you are as
common as dog poop in central park, though unlike dog poop you lack its
existential scatological aspect, thus you are significantly less
interesting.

Your self esteem is obviously so damaged and lacking that you check into
obscure ng's such as this and attempt to play the white knight by jumping to
the defense of the rude and ignorant. Beneath your underdog exterior is a
twit eaten up by self doubt and self loathing and there is little hope that

actualization.

It required no effort at all. It may seem that way to a 300 baud mind in a
broadband world.

Wow, you put a lot of effort in to such a small argument. It's funny how
worked up your getting.

Run along now troll.

P.S. Those grade 6s really shouldn't be teaching you such language.

Please be polite.

You didn't "prove" jack cable guy. You just made a pitiful attempt to feel
superior by arguing about an inconsequential semantic (a common trait of
small minds), and you are so hopelessly literal minded that anything I have
to say is taken as being serious, literal and consequential. You are a
thick buffoon and a crushing bore.

Puff out your chest like some neurotic prairie chicken, regale your
significant other with tales of your superior debating talents and joyously
anticipate getting laid as he swoons, wide-eyed and admiring of your giant
intellect. Usenet is overrun with morons like yourself, and thus you

are

as
common as dog poop in central park, though unlike dog poop you lack its
existential scatological aspect, thus you are significantly less
interesting.

Your self esteem is obviously so damaged and lacking that you check into
obscure ng's such as this and attempt to play the white knight by

jumping

to
the defense of the rude and ignorant. Beneath your underdog exterior is a
twit eaten up by self doubt and self loathing and there is little hope that
wretches such as yourself will ever realize even a hint of self
actualization.

You're dismissed little man. Assume your accustomed fetal position and
insert thumb into mouth.

off
and wanted

but

it that

exaggerating

: I
was bothered
to exactly
add is
that the

there

is

absolutely
no
way
for you to correct your rude behavior other than for

you
to

apologize,
admit
you're wrong, wrong, wrong and then contemplate doing
yourself
in
and
post
a
daily diary of that contemplation so we can encourage your
progress.
Now
get started you little prig.

*Note* These Pop-ups are part of Messenger Service and
*NOT
WINDOWS
OR
MSN
MESSENGER*

For Messenger Service ads:
You need to install or enable a firewall:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q330904

*Note* Unless properly and, unfortunately, manually
configured,
ALL
Windows
Messenger file transfers, voice conversations, and video
conversations
will
fail to connect. (If anyone knows how to properly
configure
the
Windows

XP
firewall, please post how.)

Disabling Messenger Service can be a good idea, but it
does
not
solve
the
real problem.

The ads are not the real problem, the ads are only a
symptom
of
a
larger
issue. The real problem is open ports that allow unwanted
traffic
into
the
computer.

Disabling Messenger does nothing for the open ports. You
would
need
a
firewall that controls the traffic.

Although not an obvious problem, open ports can lead to
larger
problems
such
as hackers, and backdoor Trojan viruses.

The above solution will not work if you have AOL as

is
not

compatible
with
Windows XP Internet Connection Firewall (ICF). If you
have
AOL,
you
should
contact AOL and/or get a 3rd party firewall. [Why
