thx goes out op patchou by Dutchman on 11-07-2004 at 11:58 AM

Well patchou I would like to thank you for this great software...
Here in holland your program even came on tv because of the spyware on it but I think you are one of the only programs really admitting you got spyware and making the users easy to uninstall the spyware or not even install it..

than people will ask why don't you just ask money for the program?

well that's really easy... I won't post the url but one word is enough astalavista
there will be keygens made just like for every other program and patchou still doesn't earn much money offcourse there will be people saying well I will pay for it etc but guess what most people will think haha MSN messenger 7.0 is free so wht the $#@! would I pay for an add on.

Patchou has made it really clear he ven putted the box in the installation window that you will receive..

and yes nobody reads those licenseagreements but he didn't put it in the license agreement... but he just writes it down..
you can't blame him to put it standard in I agree, install with sponsorware program because he simply NEEDS an income and all the stupid people that don't even read one sentence are the income for patchou... and guess what it's there own fault..

p.s ofcourse I didn' install the sponsorware myself hehe :P (MYSEARCH ain't that hard to destroy but LOP is so DAMN annoying)

First of all, his program doesn't have Spyware bundled into it, its adware, and its optional, so you don't have to install it. I think that very few people would pay for the extension, and keygens would be made.. But I ensure everyon that Patchou will keep the use of Messenger Plus! free for all users to benefit from.

I agree that the users that don't read the agreements are just silly, then they even have the ordacity to blame it on Patchou!

Plus has never admitted to have spyware because it doesn't...it had ad-ware...which doesn't cause any spying on the computer...

Thank you for your post Dutchman, I appreciate that. For the info, unisntalling my sponsor is just a matter of uninstalling Plus! :). As far as the agreement is concerned, it'd not even about reading the agreement, it's about looking at the agreement window and realising that it looks very different from the usual agreement stuff, in many ways :)
