RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup
I'd be happy to install the sponsor if it wasnt obtrusive, but IMO, that sponsor is obtrusive, too bad you cant get a sponsor that changes the MSN Messenger ad to their own haha, that would be awesome, i'd love to support you in otherways, cept im just a lazy jobless 18 year old punk.
I don't feel guilty for not wanting to install something on my computer, I don't think that is meant to get you to feel guilty, just to let you know that if you install the sponsor you are supporting him, and vis versa... i am very happy that its much harder to accidently accept hte sponsor agreement now.
Microsoft should hire you, they really should, all your kick ass features come built in with MSN Messenger, then you make some kick ass cash!

RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup
lol... well, talking about intrusive.. I installed Kaza on avirtual station today to see what was happening and: OMG. NothingIcoulddo to try to remove all the ads worked, I tried to install Adaware and when it misteriously crashed, samething for SpyBot... Kazaa even changed some of the stuff of my own sponsor program. I really think somepeople should reconsider their opinion of lop.com being the worst thing available on the net.

RE: The "I Refuse" phrase in Plus! setup
I think the argument that lop.com is the worst sponsor out there is a silly one. No matter how many times you tell people, they do not seem to realise that you have worked closely with lop.com (or C2Media or whatever they are called!!) and have a heavily modified sponsor program.
Sadly its the same argument people make when Microsoft make a product. Since its Microsoft, it muct be crap/evil/monopolising etc etc. The fact is they make some great stuff, but people tar them with the same brush.
I think I'm getting a little sidetracked here. Since we aren't supposed to post screenshots, I was wondering how many different versions of the sponsor agreement there are? The only one I have seen was quite clear. I would be happy to go with it!!

The reason it is worded like that is to make his users aware that the agreement is not for the sponsor program.
Erm... What?
This is the sponsor agreement we're talking about, of course its about that.
Oops J_Mac, I was at work when typing this and had to finish real quick cause I got a call so...

Only 36? Pffttt!
As I'm sure you will make the best descision you can based on user feedback, I'm behind you all the way, although I suggest on the "Installation Complete" screen, there be a dancing banana done with the Plus! symbol in the background.
