A while back there was something on the list about
these stupid Messenger Service pop up ads. I looked in the archive but found

words to stop these ads:
FIREWALL, firewall, FireWall

defective
firewall that was taken off line was not immediately replaced. We're trying to find a
software
firewall as a temporary fix, but the first two I tried (Tiny Personal Firewall and
ZoneAlarm) both

A follow-up on this. We finally had to remove Tiny Personal Firewall from our FTP
server. A pattern
had developed where you would start downloading a file, about 200KB would download,
