| 378360 | 2005-08-04 23:47:00 | Using a Win 2000 system we are getting alert messages "System to Alert 47 critical errors found" The solution is given to visit a web site that does not exist. How do we turn this off ? |

| 378362 | 2005-08-05 01:04:00 | Speedy is right, it is most likely Windows messenger.. see here (grc.com) for explanation and a small utility to turn it off. If you don't run a firewall you can also get those pop-ups when the scanning server sees an open IP address. |
