yeah i seem to have this problem when i don't have my xp firewall enabled....but yeah disable the messanger 2..you can also stop messanger from loading by changing the Messanger program folder name..if you disable it from startup (msconfig) it just re-checks itself..
aka u have to change the folder name, so that windows doesn't recongize the (root directory) or something like that..
anyways w3rks fer me!
EDIT: i run winxp
