hi isa list
Every 4 to 5 minutes I'm receiving 6 to 8 mails from
".NET Messenger Service Staff"
<dot_net_msgr_svc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>  regarding
Importatn Security Updates for .NET Messenger Service
and contaning ATTENTION: IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED FOR
MSN AND WINDOWS MESSENGER USERS.

You are receiving this e-mail because you are a MSN
Messenger or Windows Messenger Service user.

As part of Microsoft's Trustworthy Computing
initiative, Microsoft is updating the .NET Messenger
Service and providing you with an important MSN
Messenger or Windows Messenger security update.

If you are using MSN Messenger 5.0, Windows Messenger
4.7.2000, or MSN Messenger for Mac 3.5, or any
versions higher than these, you do NOT need this
security update. To find out which version you have,
select the 'Help' menu in Messenger, then select
'About'. If you are using an older version, or are not
sure, please visit:

for an update. 
NOTICE: If you are not using an updated version, you
will be unable to continue using your MSN Messenger or
Windows Messenger Service. 
Thank you for helping Microsoft further its commitment
to helping you protect your privacy and security
online.

what is that for?
