Bolt Intra - Search bar by WLM Oblivion on 06-28-2004 at 12:31 PM
I just got MSG Plus and i love the features. There is just one thing that annoys me. That Bolt Intra bar which appears in you I Explorer. 
Is there any way to remove it permanently... or could you please make a plugin to remove it. It really goes on my nerves.

Hi WLM Oblivion,
It seems while installing Messenger Plus! you have installed the sponsor program by mistake: you selected I ACCEPT, install the sponsor in the installation program. Please note this is not spyware it's simply a small search bar for Internet Explorer so Patchou (the creator of Messenger Plus!) so he can make a living off it...
If before doing the below you have attempted to remove the sponsor program by any other method, like spyware and adware removal tools, messed around in the registry or tried to delete files you must install Messenger Plus! again with the sponsor program before doing this...
To uninstall it go to Add/Remove Programs in the control panel and double click on "Messenger Plus!" (or click on Remove). Then "Messenger Plus! - Setup" is displayed.
Click on the Uninstall button. after a couple of seconds, the program will ask you if you want to keep your preferences, it is suggested to say "Yes".
Then you'll be asked to type in the number displayed in the box then click Uninstall.
Now you must click Yes when asked to confirm the uninstall...If you're asked to close Internet explorer or any program do so. Now restart your computer and the sponsor program will be gone.

It's great when people are nice about the sponsor program, rather than leaping into the deep end shouting 'Spyware' and such s***.
Glad to welcome you to the forums, WLM Oblivion. Enjoy your stay!

If you did not accept the sponsor then it isn't messenger plus that put that there
changes are that you accidentally did it though
heck, every time i install plus i click "I accept" then i remember on the next window that that was the sponsor
