If that doesn't work you could try-
Start - Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Services - Scroll Down to Messenger Service (Messenger) - Right click Options Disable + Stop

That worked for me!

Go on download.com, there's loads of free spyware blockers on there. Or go to Start, Settings, Control Panel, Add or remove Software and have a look at what's in there, you can usually spot the rogues.

Or download this and run it: http://www.tune-up.com/download/tu2007/

You could try the old "system restore"-Start-All Programs-Accessories-System Tools-System Restore then follow the instructions.

My lass downloads a lot of games too......ahem :uhoh:
