Get your facts straight... The only "problems" which triggered the revocation of Patchou's active status (note: "active" !!!!!!) were due to some people having personal problems with him being an MVP, and that is it!!! The reasons those people gave for wanting his status revoked were massively based upon hear-say from others and nothing else; they even gave so called 'examples' which had nothing todo with the sponsor program bundled with Plus! what-so-ever...

Unfortunatly I can not proof this in public since I would be breaking the MVP NDA....

And lowering yourself to their level?

-----------------------

And what those sites like siteadvisor.com do not tell you is that the sponsor can only be installed if you explicitly tell the setup to install it. The sponsor is never installed by default and never automatically. In that aspect even siteadvisor.com does not make any sense since one 'analysis' says the Plus! setup is perfectly clean to the last bit and the other say it contains the swizzor trojan, while there was nothing changed in the setup at all... Shows how 'reliable' such sites are and how much you need to take all this with a big grain of salt.

Good job anonymous user... Posting on some crappy website instead of on the forums so that I could fix the problem with the script. Whatever.

Ok this might be a bit picky but..

A trojan isn't the same as a virus
Just thought I should clear that point

Anyway, McAfee is making an incorrect reading. Messenger Plus! Live is perfectly fine
As long as you download the installer from the official site there is nothing you need to worry about

...playing the advocate of the devil here, but ...

John Anderton, if they say Plus! or its setup is a virus/trojan, then they are indeed wrong.

However if they say "it comes bundled with" as they actually do (AFAIK and IIRC) then they are actually correct.

Don't dismiss things too soonish. Words should be choosen carefully AND read/interpreted correctly...
