Due to the increasing number of queries relateing to the Messenger pop-up messages, I thought that this may help clear a few things up.
firstly, and most importantly, these pop-ups have absolutely NOTHING to do with either Windows Messenger or MSN Messenger, they are actually received by the "Messenger service"
All you have to do to stop these popups is go to open your start menu then select "run" then in the dialog box, type "services.msc" (minus quotes)
Run Dialog
Now you should be presented with the services window, scroll down to the service called "Messenger" and double click it.
Services Window
Click the startup type drop down menu, and select manual, then click the "stop" button.
Messenger Service
Click ok to close the messenger service dialog window, then close the services window, you should now be safe from those annoying pop-ups
