Hello:
The other option is to disable the Messenger service which would prevent NT
from sending the messages. This would also disable most other screen
notifications NT will send you, such as when that account has someone else
logging in. I believe it will only disable the service from the
workstation/server it is disabled on.
Hope this may be of some help.
