I love Messenger Plus so much I installed it on my work PC (we use Messenger to talk to our home workers) My boss however made us remove a lot of stuff with a recent clampdown and Msg Plus was told to go unfortunately. Although i've removed it I still have an advert which comes up as soon as I click on someones name in my contact list, regardless of wether I type anything to them or not. It says something along the lines of "I got my IM Names" etc etc   how do I remove this as i've been told to get rid and i've tried everything.

Thank you folks, hopefully you can help

if you run antispay ware it should take care of this problem

Hi and thx for the reply. I've ran the latest versions of both SpyBot and Adaware and it doesn't remove it sadly

just install plus without the sponsor programs. during setup select "i refuse to give support" and proceed.

I don't want to install it, i've uninstalled it because i'm not allowed it

But the advert remains

If you have uninstalled Messenger Plus! and the sponsor, the adverts that are appearing on your computer are not Messenger Plus! related.

I'd also reccomend doing an anti-virus search aswell.

However, if you have used spyware/adware removal software, then it could've corrupted the uninstaller and it didn't uninstall correctly.

You can do all of this and easily justify it with your boss if he tells you off...

Download Messenger Plus! from shoutbox.menthix.net/download.php and install with the sponsor program. Reboot the computer, press alt+ctrl+del and close every instance of iexplore.exe that there is (this is the process for internet explorer), then go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and remove Messenger Plus! 3 and the sponsor software. If you reboot, it should now be gone.

If it is still there, then it isn't the plus! sponsor i'm afraid.

I may help u out with this. Cuz even me n my friends suffered from it. i found a cure for it.
1. Go to C: program files/im-names and delete all the files.
2. Three of them get deleted and 1(in-server) give an error that it is being used by someother person.
3. Press Alt+Ctrl+Del.
4. Task manager opens up.
5. There go to the process tab.(if u dunt find it see points 6 n 7)

^^^ A good virus scanner also can scan spyware last time i checked

To tell u the truth a virus scanner can stop a  virus when it enters ur computer, not when its already there!!! And specially for this cause use the help posted in my previous post.
