Ermm.. when installing this program, I have to say I LOVE the features. They kick @$$. However, I hate the fact that my browsers home page ia automatically changed to some site with a billion ads on it causing pop-ups galore. Not to mention I get 5 new icons on my desktop. Lets not forget about the CDROM programs running? I dont know what they are, they didnt do nuthing, but every time i ended the tasks of these CDROM~1 they both would come back. Whats up with this? I dont want this crap with a program thats suppose to be good. I love the features but somethings gotta be done with this side @$%!

You've installed the sponsor program by the sounds of things. Just uninstall Plus! and then reinstall without the sponsor program

You didn't read what you were installing. There is an optional sponsor-ad in the installer and if you don't like it you should click: I don't agree; install Messenger Plus! WITHOUT the sponsor. You will have to remove plus and reinstall without the sponsor.

BTW: check the forums before asking questions that are asked very often.

Welcome to the forums

Hi OdomOwnage,

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.
