Messenger Plus and IE error?! by Metal Maniac on 01-01-2009 at 05:49 PM

First of all, I don't use IE at all, so I dont know why Plus is trying to communicate with it or whatever.

Ever since I downloaded messenger Plus, I start getting this error message from Internet Explorer. I dont use that browser, so I have no idea why. It asks me if I want to send an error message and everything.

Has this been asked before? How is it fixed? (also, what causes it? Im very curious lol)

Hmm... wich error message? What does it say, do you remember?


RE: Messenger Plus and IE error?! by Metal Maniac on 01-01-2009 at 06:19 PM

I dont remember exactly (I got it a while ago but closed it because it was interrupting me haha), but its similar when a program freezes and you you go to task manager to force it to close, that it prompts you if you want to send a error report.

Does IE open from nothing or you open it and it freezes?

Do you have any script installed? Wich ones? Any other add-on or plugin?
(Have you installed the sponsor?)


RE: Messenger Plus and IE error?! by Metal Maniac on 01-01-2009 at 07:03 PM

You are speaking chinese to me. I have a couple of scripts: crazy text and Gradiator, which is for having two color tones on the text.

This is what the error says:

"Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" See? Just as if for some reason I were using it. Im not.

Now that you bring the scripts, Ill try getting rid of them.

You probably went blindly through the installation of MsgPlus and clicked I agree to all prompts, thus installing the sponsor program (which is adware). Uninstall MsgPlus and the sponsor, then reinstall MsgPlus, and make sure this time to refuse to install the sponsor.


RE: Messenger Plus and IE error?! by Metal Maniac on 01-01-2009 at 08:08 PM

Thanks. I did went blindly

BTW, how do I uninstall it? (gee what a noob!!)
