messenger

[Dana Goennemann]

Hello!

I may be in the wrong newsgroup and if so please tell me
where I should go, please.

Problem: When I'm online every 5 min. or so a messenger
comes up and tells me that either I have a virus (which I
don't think is true) or it's some sort of junk message
that is telling me to go to someones website and look at
their site (it's usually with sexual content). How do I
get rid of these annoying messages?

I feel like I'm being invaded.

If you are using WinXP applying WinXP's firewall to your connection will
stop these.
