No more unwanted advertising IP messages with this software. Say goodbye to annoying ads for good.
As the number of Internet users grows, there are increasing complaints about a new kind of popup advertising window that has been surfacing on screens. This type of spam goes by the name of "IP spam" or "net spam" and is generated using the internal Windows messaging service. While this messaging service was designed with network administrators in mind, allowing them to send messages to multiple users via a network, IP spam has been taking advantage of this tool to deliver unwanted and unsolicited messages.
It is important to note that the Windows messaging service should not be confused with the Windows Messenger instant messaging program, which operates separately. As a tool, the messaging service is only available on Windows NT, 2000 and XP, and cannot be used to switch off messaging services on operating systems such as Windows 95, 98, or Me.
For users who are experiencing IP spam and want to de-activate the messaging service, there is a simple solution. However, it is important to note that the following steps should only be taken if the user's system is not integrated into a local network:
- Click on the "Start" button in your task bar
- Select "Settings"/"Control Panel"/"Network"
- Click on "File and printer accessibility in Microsoft networks"
- Select "Delete".
This software review highlights the growing issue of IP spam and provides users with a solution to deactivating the messaging service on their systems. It is essential to have a clear understanding of the Windows messaging service and its purpose, in order to avoid unwanted spam and unsolicited messages.
