PopUp Manager catches only PopUps windows, not NET Send Messages also
commonly known as winPop or the like.  I use Sygate Personal Firewall to
block popup Messages received in the messenger service from outside my
network.  I use MsSqlServer 2000 and I don't have any problems receiving
messages from it either.  Like I said ZoneAlarm is ok, but I prefer Sygate,
and I've tried several firewall packages.
