Hey Hey, RE: Plus! seen as spyware?! by Menthix on 03-21-2005 at 08:27 PM We gonna need to know the name of the anti-spyware program before we can help. You can probally configure tis anti-spyware program to exclude Messenger Plus! somewhere. RE: Plus! seen as spyware?! by Ahmad on 03-21-2005 at 08:28 PM If you're using Microsoft AntiSpyware - then after scanning, select Ignore under MsgPlus! RE: Plus! seen as spyware?! by Super Dude on 03-21-2005 at 08:38 PM I'll check some logs and/or reinstall 3.5 and do scans with each program and see which ones pick it up.. It was either M$ Anit-spywear or Adaware SE that he used, because those are the ones that were used in the last week... RE: Plus! seen as spyware?! by jvlppm on 03-21-2005 at 08:39 PM
some ppl (i know 4) dont use plus because of that, they think that spywares/adwares are instaled even if you chango to not install sponsor RE: Plus! seen as spyware?! by Menthix on 03-21-2005 at 08:42 PM
quote:It's probally MS Anti-Spyware then. Adaware will only detect the sponsor when you have it installed and not Plus! itself. Follow Ahmed's instructions to ignore Plus! in MS Anti-Spyware. RE: Plus! seen as spyware?! by Super Dude on 03-21-2005 at 08:45 PM Done, twas MS Spyware *shakes fist*... thanks for the help! hopefully it won't happen anymore.. now to the task of retriving all those plugins... *woot*... RE: Plus! seen as spyware?! by Patchou on 03-22-2005 at 12:15 AM there surely is a way.. if many people complain, companies who see Messenger Plus! as dangerous will need to reconsider their position, test Plus! for 5 minutes and see that they were wrong, so, write to them! . |
