I keep getting alerts from McAfee Firewall that
services.exe is trying to access the Internet; every time
I allow it, the damn thing displays a Messenger Service
popup window claiming 'This "Worm" message has just got
through all your computer security systems' (yeah,
right!). It gives a phone number: 0961 340 0141,
information supplied by IT Support UK.

Has anyone else experienced this? What the hell's
happening? Has services.exe been hijacked by a virus or
something? What can I do about it?

Its messenger spam either block 135, 137-139 at the firewall or go to
services and disable messanger.
