Plus! in a PC magazine by Fortee on 03-06-2004 at 08:41 PM

It was in PC Magazine once a long time ago, and I made a thread about it...

Now I remember a Spanish mag that had an extense article about MP! No scanner :undecided:
PC Format is a great mag we had here in Spain for a long time but the editors decided to discontinue selling it here :'(

Maybe just the 1s who have helped and have been here for a while and have kept active
RE: Plus! in a PC magazine by Johnny_Mac on 03-12-2004 at 11:43 PM

An update of this. I have the small article. It is written with reference to keystroking. And how users can "spy" (their words not mine) and keep encrypted logs of conversations.

The most amazing thing is the magazine comes with a free disk. And included on the disk? Messenger Plus! 2!


RE: Plus! in a PC magazine by KeyStorm on 03-12-2004 at 11:50 PM

spy? how? :rolleyes::lol:


RE: Plus! in a PC magazine by Johnny_Mac on 03-12-2004 at 11:55 PM

The article is a snippet from a keystroking feature. It just mentions how you can log and encrypt conversations on MSN Messenger. It does so in a factual way, it is not accusing Plus! as a spying tool.

btw, I have attached a screenshot of the CD feature. The CD hold version 2.54.74 of Plus!

RE: Plus! in a PC magazine by Chrono on 03-13-2004 at 12:25 AM

there isnt a parental watch feature anymore.. :dodgy:


RE: Plus! in a PC magazine by Johnny_Mac on 03-13-2004 at 12:26 AM

Your telling the wrong person... contact PC format. :P


RE: Plus! in a PC magazine by Chrono on 03-13-2004 at 12:32 AM

and what could they do about it? :P
its amazing that they didnt know that the parental watch feature isnt there since version 2.0.. i wonder if they really tried it or just copy/pasted the info from another website :P
Cause, if u check ur attachment, they only mention the features that were there in the 1.42 version :dodgy:


RE: Plus! in a PC magazine by Johnny_Mac on 03-15-2004 at 12:40 PM

Heres the article. Sorry about the size - it was 1.4 mb originally. :undecided:
