Two completely different things.  |
Just to make clear: I meant "also after you disabled the "windows messenger service" in the "services" part of you control panel" |
No such thing my friend. There is a "messenger service", but that serves a completely different function.
Quote:
The Messenger Service was originally designed for use by system administrators to notify Windows users about their networks. However, some advertisers have started using this service to send information via the Internet, and these messages could be used maliciously to distribute a virus.
• Note Although the name of the service is similar, Messenger Service in Windows XP is not related to instant messaging programs such as Windows Messenger and MSN Messenger. Disabling instant messaging programs is not necessary and not recommended. Disabling instant messaging programs will not prevent Messenger Service spam on your computer.
