Just for clarity, those are not really po-ups. They are Network messages that some spammers have decided to use as a covert message delivery system. I turn off hte service because I find it anoying. To be honest I didn't even know it was being used for spamming because I would never have gotten the messages. If you are on a network where you need htese messages, don't turn it off. The messgaes tha will be blocked are things like "so and so server out of disk space" or "such and such printer has finished a print jog" or whatever a sys admin may consider important for the network users to know.
