    Download Mozilla Firefox for starters, and scrap the IE.

    Then look up "Vengeance" on here... he'll know what to do. ;)

    Or maybe its the other way around.

    Yes, Firefox stops viruses... next : cancer. ;)

    BTW... if it's truly a messenger service popup you're seeing, go to Google and search for "stop messenger service". You'll be presented with a billion links as to how you can disable the messenger service in Winblowz.

    ;) Thanks IROC

    DoD has it right -- it's most likely a messenger service popup.

    <a href="http://www.itc.virginia.edu/desktop/docs/messagepopup/">Here's a great link on how to disable the messenger service</a>. THOSE popups will go away after that.

    Get a marker and write "Mozilla" on each of your clubs, you'll hit it straight even in 20 mph wind.

    If you want a hole-in-one each time you swing, tie an Apple to your clubs.
