This has nothing to do with Mozilla. This is spam sent to the Windows Messenger Service, and you can find ways to block it by searching on "windows messenger service spam" in google. Bugzilla is not a support service, it is a bug tracking application for Mozilla products. Please do not report non-Mozilla issues here or file bugs asking for help.
