Whether or not you install the sponsor doesn't change the fact that the Sponsor Program IS bundled with the installation of Messenger Plus!. The software doesn't properly detect of the sponsor is installed or not.

You can ignore it because it is only detecting it as a software bundler. If you click no to installing the sponsor its not installed. The answer you just asked is in the threads both sunshine and I posted. This has been asked soo many times. Please use the search feature next time.
