looking for a good Instant Message pop-up killer

[ECHO]

Recently I've been getting annoying instant message pop-ups such as THIS and they are driving me crazy. I get one every 15 minutes or so and I have no idea how to end the madness. I've installed the Google Toolbar with a Pop-up blocker but this did not help. I also scan with Spybot on a daily basis and this hasn't helped either.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

That's not a regular pop up. Go into Admin Tools and Services and disable the messenger service.
