5 How Car Annual Checking Works

The car plate that you are talking about, how does it work ? Pardon my ignorance.

In Singapore, we have this Certificate of Entitlement (COE) thing, the method the government regulates car numbers in Singapore, typically prices for this COE is between S$8000 - S$15000, though it used to be S$30000 sometime back.

Is it something similar and used for the same purposes, regulation of car numbers ?

Hi All,
Rather than turn off the Messenger service you can stop the messages by turning off the NetBios over TCP/IP.

If you are just connecting to the internet for browsing and run win 2K or newer you don't need netbios running.

How to ?
Its a tick box

Where ?
Simple : Settings > Network And Dial-Up Connections,
Connection to the internet > Properties,
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) > Properties > Advanced,
WINS
Here you will see three options
1. Enable NetBios over TCP/IP
2. Disable NetBios over TCP/IP
3. Use NetBios settings from the DHCP server

Since this is the network connection from your PC to your ISP, the third option is normally selected as default.
Change the selection to option 2.

Reboot.

Problem solved.

Enjoy

Disable NetBios over TCP/IP should do the trick.
