OMG! I am so sick and tired of this annoying pop up with this damn MSN Content Plus. I have removed all contents of such application and it keeps popping the annoying notification stating that "Your current trial time is expired. Please register or uninstall All products of MSN Content Plus". (MSN WINKS PLUS)

I even went and reinstall the bloody software and removed it and it keeps popping up. what makes is worst is that it gives you no chance to work in peace because as you click on immediately after i keeps popping back non stop. This is driving me mad and i really don't want to throw my laptop through the window.

WHAT CAN I DO TO GET RID OF IT?

This has nothing to do with the Messenger Plus! Extension by Patchou, so I'm moving it to a different forum...

Go look on their website for all the programs that it may involve.

Website: http://www.msncontentplus.com/

There are some e-mailadresses on the site too if you got troubles uninstalling etc. etc.


There was a thread about this before but the first poster deleted it...

Press ctrl alt delete & open your windows task manager.  Under processes....look for msn content plus ( or winks) clik it and end process...that will end the trial period message.

Uninstalling the program will not rid the trial message.  It was a glitch in that version.  You can uninstall it until you are blue, but the message will continue to popup.  Msn content plus has advised that the way to rid this popup message is as I stated earlier.  Ctrl, alt, delete...bring up the Windows Task Manager...locate msncontentplus.exe and end the process.  I followed these instructions & have not seen that popup since, even after rebooting my computer.  This is the only way to delete the popup, which as I said will continue even after uninstalling the program.

ok well i have figured out which programs are causing the popup i just can't get rid of em cuz when i attempt to close them they automaticaly re-start themselves (the closing is being done in task manager under processes) the files names are msnlogm.exe and msnlogs.exe. the next thing i tried was to delete the files but since they are open ALL the time i have yet to be allowed to delete them. Please will someone find a way to delete them while they are open or turn on windows without starting them!!!

Yeah I have this problem it is sooo annoying I have to do the ctrl+alt+del and click on "msnapp" or something everytime I turn on my laptop. I have looked for the files I have to delete but can't find them

Go to start -> Run -> "msconfig" -> Startup -> (find msnapp.exe) -> unselect it -> Apply -> Ok.
Then reboot to test

Does msn content plus have to be intsalled to do that? cuz when i open msconfig and go to find it says there are no matches for msnapp.exe.

if u delete the winks u installed it stops

I had a similar situation... was able to get it to go away by manually deleting the msnapp.exe (or similarly named) file from the Windows folder.  Looks like this doesn't get removed with the Uninstall process

When in doubt, reformat your computer! lol

Pointless, and bad advice.

Is it? I've had computer troubles of my own in the past, and when I've tried everything there is in the books, I just back everything up and rformat my computer. And by doing this I can carefully reinstall each and everyone of my programs, to see which one(s) cause the problems I was facing before. Reformating your computer clearly isn't the best advice one can give people seeking help, but it's a different approach to learning what is wrong with your system.

When the answer is availible, it is pointless & bad adivice.

Formatting your computer just to re-install windows... waste of a product code isn't it?

Well, when there are pirated versions of Window, there is no problem of activation. Yes it's bad advice but it is another way of fixing it. The main thing is it FIXES the problem. This is like a last resort resolution.

Hi there!

I did had the same problem! And my pc got VERY slow becouse of this program...

Its starting itself from the registry, when you try to delete it, it comes back automatic immediately in the registry....

To remove it:

- Reboot youre computer
- Start windows in safe mode (F8 during boor)
- Start Run -> regedit
- Goto: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
- And remove the anoying 'msnlogm.exe' program!
- Reboot, and it is gone

Good luck!
