Block ports 1026, 1027 and 135 from the internet or, if not
needed, which is more often than not, DISABLE the messenger
service.
 
Install a firewall for your computer, either a NAT router device [available
at Best Buy, etc] at the cable/dsl modem if using one or a personal firewall
such as Zone Alarm that offers a free one to users that is easy for even
novices to configure. See the link below for more security measures that are
nedded. --- Steve
