On both my computers this morning I had this popup.... one of the computers had nothing other then ICQ running.

Is this a windows hole ? Someone must be making serious fucking cash doing this.

well, i think you should close / firewall tcp port 137 and 138 for the ourside world, those are netbios ports ...

Well in Windows 2000/XP you can use "net send <ip/computername> <whatyouwannawright>" in the command line to send thoose kind of messages to someone.

To disable the messenger service do a "net stop messenger" in the commandline.... that should solve your problems.

Thanks for the STOP messenger tip :o)

Yup, looks like a Netsend command. Get a firewall. Kind of interesting that people are using scripts to send that out now. Interesting. At least the message wasn't misleading. If I would be scamming with this, I'd say

<b>"WARNING! VIRUS FOUND, must download dialer and follow instructions on how to remove it. Complete viral cleaning can take up to 20 minutes" </b>

Now THAT would be freaky for a newbie! Calling in at I dunno, $4.95 a minute! hehehe

Wow... time to go script hunting I think....
