ParticipantFor the toolbar, when you installed Messenger Plus, you agreed to install the sponsor’s adware (s’what happens when you zip through installation and don’t read stuff ;)).
All you need to do uninstall Messenger Plus with their uninstall tool, then reinstall it CUSTOMLY (sans adware) versus the “recommended installation” which you did first time round.

MemberOkay, I have a few answers 😉
Your first question regarding Messenger Plus has already been answered.Regarding your second question, your best option would be to get it from the official websites:
http://messenger.msn.com/ or http://www.msnmessenger-download.com/About the third question, it really depends on your skin. Your best option would be to download the latest version of the skin.
A significant number of skins (or at least the ones I have come across) are hard-edited, usually using a hexeditor, to change certain features, such as the backgrounds colours and fonts, of the program, in this case, MSN. Now the different versions of MSN use different protocols to communicate. In practice, this means that if you skin (edit) and older version of MSN, for example 6.0, which uses protocol version MSNP9, it would not be allowed to connect to the MSN servers, which currently use MSNP10.April 30, 2004 at 3:55 pm #45828Anna
ParticipantDon’t feel dumb, I installed the adware by accident the first too 😀

You must have overlooked something when installing, even the Messenger Plus website says the exact same thing.

ParticipantWhen MsgPlus! asks if you Agree or Disagree, choose DISAGREE.

ParticipantWhen I had the toolbar, I just clicked View>Toolbars>(then the name of the toolbar, whatever it was), and it would go away. Unfortunately, it would reappear when you restarted IE, but I think I made it go away so many times eventually it just dissapeared forever.
