Is this the spam that was being discussed on the boards a few days ago where they send it through windows messaging?

Can someone tell me how to block it?

I wasn't implying that it was from ATOT, just wondering if anyone knows how to stop it.

Just stop the messenger service and set the start type to manual so it won't start the next time you reboot.

If I want to start it back up again how do I do that?
