firewall and many times I get the mail back I send her and she does not =
know how to change that.

Hi Sylvia
I also have WinME, but you cannot disable the=3D20
Messenger Service. You can, however, disable
it through a firewall, namely, Sygate. (don't know
about others).
This certainly sounds like the Windows Messenger
Service to me.
