I found this site on google because I was searching for msn patches and addons and I noticted something I hadn’t seen before, MSN Plus, It seemed a trustworthy site so I downloaded it…
After 10 minutes of basking in the Instant Messaging delight Plus had brought I then discovered all the crap that it had brought onto my computer with it.
Thankfully it all came off thanks to SpyBot Search & Destroy and Ad-Aware and Hijack This but I think this site is really let down by crap like that being asscoiated with it.
:(:(When you install Messenger Plus! you have the choice to also install the sponsor software. You probably left this option selected.
Curdatron, this has been discussed at length before. Read Messenger Plus Bundling Lop.com for all the gory details, as well as instructions on how to back out of the mess you’re in.
Plus is a great product, but Patchou (the developer) decided that the best way to support Plus was through the optional “sponsor” program. When you install, you’ll see something that looks like the typical “terms of service” blather that most programs make you click OK to. DO NOT CLICK OK! If you read the check box carefully, you’ll find that you do NOT have to agree to the so-called “sponsor” program (lop.com) in order to install and use Plus. You’re free to disable this during installation, and then you get all of the goodness of Plus with none of the nastiness of Lop.com.
