Block Teamviewer ID Number? - xivister - 04-22-2014 12:10 AM
I am getting spam from a particular person on the Windows program Teamviewer. How can I block that ID number?

Teamviewer isn't a Windows program. You should leave it running if it's not in use. Just shut it down.
Not sure how they are using Teamviewer as a spam vehicle, they shouldn't be able to see you at all. Uninstall Teamviewer, if you don't need it. This will halt all contact.

Teamviewer is an excellent tool to allow another person to connect and share or fix issues. I use it to help friends/family
However it sounds like your teamviewer is set to start at startup - you can uninstall it if you have no use but you could just as easily remove it from startup
But I would advise you contact teamviewer via their website and report the id - they will not like their software being abused in this way
I have 9 contacts in my teamviewer list - 4 of which I see online when they boot up but I do not message them and abuse temaviewer - if they want me they message me in yahoo for help
So your choice uninstall or remove from startup or report to Teamviewer (the last being the best option)
