You can try to disable the messenger service:
1. Open Control Panel, open Administrative Tools
2. Open "Services" Managment Console
3. In the Services MMC, double-click the service named "Messenger"
4. Under the "Messenger Properties", set the startup type for this service
to "Manual" and click the "Stop" button to terminate the process.
5. Click OK, then close the Services MMC.
