aMSN Plus! by Dempsey on 12-29-2005 at 11:12 AM
I was just reading @ Neowin that a new version of aMSN has been released. When I went to the site and had a look at the Plugins list, there's one called aMSN Plus! would they need Patchou's permission to call it that?

i dont think so considering its a different name... Messenger Plus!, aMSN Plus!, its just the plus thats the same 
i dont think it really matters tbh

lordy16, absolutely right. Besides that I think aMSN doesn't know the difference between Messenger Plus! and MSN Plus. After all these two are throughout different.

but yet, plus! is a copyrighted by patchou, so they probably can't use it!
Edit : Thanks for explaining Mentix

Ofcourse somebody can use Plus! as a name. Patchou isn't the first to use it at all, take Microsoft Plus! for example that exists for a long time now.

Someone should tell them the difference about MSN Plus! and MsgPlus!
But other than that, what Patchou registered was "Messenger Plus!" (and I suppose he's registering/registered "Messenger Plus! Live").
Any other names are ok to use, and as MenthiX said, anyone can use "Plus!" (though, it has become very unoriginal IMO; understandable in programs that have been called "Plus!" years ago (such as MP! and MP!L)).
