I have installed MsgPlus Live with CookieRevised optimizations but I can't see anyone in the buddylist. When someone speak to me I must readadd it.

Your curiosity led you to install one of the fake/malicious versions outthere. Please remember to only download Plus! from the official website(s) or the mirrors mentioned onthere.

Official download sites for Plus!:
http://msgplus.net
http://www.msgpluslive.net (will be launched when Plus!Live gets released)
Mirror sites:
http://www.simtel.net/product.download.mirrors.php?id=62787

See: "Cookierevised" virus and About Messenger Plus! for Windows Live Messenger (MSN 8)

Edit: You could try and see if your contacts are still in tools > options > privacy..click the button after "See who has added you..", you can readd them from there (after uninstalling this malicious program ofcourse).

I would like to explicitly repeat that I am NOT the author of that virus, nor is Patchou (neither of us are that dumb to sign something like that with our own name, let alone we would create something like that in the first place).

Someone out there simply made those virusses to give Messenger Plus!, Patchou and me a bad name.

Never ever download any program from sites other than the official sites!!!!!! This doesn't only go for Messenger Plus!, but for any program you download.

Again, I'm sorry you got the virus, but nor Patchou nor me are the authors.

On that note, I would like you to send me that virus so we can investigate what it exactly does. In that way we can give people, who unfortunatly downloaded and executed the virus, proper advise and a possible fix.
You can mail the file(s) to cookie@msgplus.net.

Thank you

Its not a leaked beta, it's a virus that deletes your contact list.

There are tons of threads stating this problem, and it was all due to the virusses circulating on the web. And again, I have to say:



Just to have that said.
