very easy to do this ...
1. assuming win2000, go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative
Tools
2. Double Click "Services".
3. Scroll down to "Messenger" and double click.
4. "Stop" service.
5. Set Startup type to "Disabled"
Unless you're part of a network, you'll be ok. The Messenger service is used
by the administrator to send messages to network users. This services is
misused by the "pop-up messages" people.
