This started ever since we connected with Jetstream Starter.

We are running the usual apps, MSN etc. A quick check and I saw IE6 was set to Accept All, is this the cause of Win Messenger popups?

Thanks......John.

122592 2003-02-20 06:37:00 Hi John, I was just browsing a post further down that sounds like it could be the same prob as your having and the final post link describes how to disable this service. It can't be a default setting, unless as you say its something to do with jetstream as i only have dial up :-(

Here (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz)

HTH :-)
