🙂 I’ve been using MSN Plus! for a long time now and have never had any problems with it. As long as you don’t accept the SponosorWare, it doesn’t install anything else on your computer but MSN Plus! I have 3 different updated programs that I use for checking for Spyware/Adware/Viruses which are Ad-Aware, Norton Anti-Virus 2005 (this version checks for spyware/adware too) and Microsoft Anti-Spyware (beta). The Ad-Aware and Norton have never detected any kind of spyware/adware. I will tell you that the Microsoft Anti-Spyware WILL detect it (the whole program) as spyware but that is only because Microsoft owns the MSN Messenger and your really not suppose to alter it in any way, so any program that alters the Messenger will be considered Spyware by Microsoft. But since Patchou met with Microsoft executives recently, maybe that will be changing. I mean come on, do you think 2 million people a month would be downloading a program that contains spyware/adware? :confused: I don’t think so. I KNOW I wouldn’t. I’ve also recommended it to and had family download it with no problems. Another thing I wouldn’t do if it contained spyware/adware. Just my experience with and opinion on MSN Plus!
Thanks to Quicksilver messaging me, we finally figured out how to keep from getting blocked by IE. You have to go the Tools menu on your IE then click on “Internet Options” then the ADVANCED tab, then scroll down to SECURITY and check the box in front of “Allow active content to run in files on my Computer”. And that will fix it. I would only do this if you have Firewalls set up and have an Anti-virus Program like Norton Anti-virus 2005. Thanks again Quick.

MSN 7.0Thanks User91 for your reply and suggestions. But I don’t think IE is blocking the actual Yahoo login site. I guess I didn’t give enough info in my first post. Sorry. Here is what pops up in the Address box of IE when the link in Trillian is clicked and right as the IE information bar pops up blocking it: C:Program FilesTrillianusersdefaultcachesfd18.html <–the number behind sfd is not always the same. When I click on the Information bar and click "Allow Blocked content", a Security Warning window pops up that says "Allowing active content such as script and Active X controls can be useful, but it can also harm your computer. Are you sure you want to LET THIS FILE RUN Active content?" Then when I click YES, it goes to my Yahoo Inbox. I'm assuming that it's writing the Yahoo login info (password) from this cache to the Yahoo mail account so it logs me in and opens up right to the Inbox. Does that sound right? Any new suggestions?
