1) Plus! and its
optional adware sponsor are two seperate programs. You do NOT need to install the sponsor if you whish.
2) The sponsor itself is
adware, not spyware. There is a massive difference between adware and spyware.
3) The sponsor is a very very very stripped down and harmless piece of adware. It will NOT install anything from other companies, nor will it log any personal information.
4) Plus! itself does NOT contain ANY trace of adware, spyware, virusses or whatever. It is absolutely safe and clean to use
5) The sponsor does NOT contain ANY trace of spyware, virusses or whatever. It is an adware program which shows some ads while you browse in MSIE, nothing more, nothing less.

1) Nor Plus!, nor the sponsor are services. They are programs.
2) Both Plus!, and even the sponsor, are perfectly legal. They do not do anything illegally.
