u dont need a program to remove theese ads just do the following:
at run prompt type services.msc then scroll down and find "messenger"
right click it and choose stop. Then right click is again and choose properties. Under "Startup Type:" choose manual then hit apply and ok. then if needed reboot and u will never be bothered by them again.
