I had the latest msn (with plus) and spyware doctor on my vista laptop. I have had to buy a new laptop as that one broke and have again got spyware doctor installed on here (now on windows 7). However, I have since noticed after installing both the latest versions of both msn and plus that the plus fails to work as there is no "options" for plus available on the drop down menu.

Unfortunately Spyware Doctor is one of the software that has conflicts with Plus! and they haven't fixed it yet... RE: Plus and spyware by Toxn on 04-30-2010 at 06:51 PM
Spyware Doctor will not work with Plus. You will have to uninstall it and find another spyware removal program. Windows 7 should have Windows Defender with it. quote:Spyware Doctor is not a antivirus. If you need a free antivirus Microsoft also has one called Microsoft Security Essentials RE: Plus and spyware by Chris4 on 04-30-2010 at 07:02 PM I've contacted PC Tools (Spyware Doctor) and asked them if they can reconsider Messenger Plus! Live's 'spyware' status in consideration of the new sponsor. Will let you know if they reply. RE: Plus and spyware by fab23 on 04-30-2010 at 07:20 PM Thank you all for your replies and advice!! I will certainly look into these things. |
