    I have a windows messenger service spam very similar to 386 in ur blog
    do u know the workaround

    Go to Start Menu, Run…, type services.msc, Enter, in the list of services you will find Messenger, right click it, then Properties, Stop it from there and put Startup type “Disabled”. This will stop it now and on. In real life I doubt you need this service, it’s a kind of legacy.
