This isn't really MP!L's fault for this bug, but nevertheless a bug involving MP!L

In Windows Live OneCare 1.5.1785.18, when after I did my virus scan, it displays that the Messenger Plus! Installer was potentially harmful and was removed.

And obviously MP!L is not harmful, and therefore a Bug by Microsoft.

ADMIN: I'm not really sure where to put this. Please move it as you wish.

Yeah this happened to me too.

I actually had no problem with Onecare 1.5.1785.18, it detected stuff earlier, but using the new and shiny admintools, you can set onecare to ignore, and the problem is solved.

I did a virus scan with one care and nothing came up, except for a trojan.
ps i didnt installed the sponsor
maybe thats the problem

I didn't install the sponsor either (not that i dont support MP!L).

It still came up

It's detecting the sponsor's installer, which is packaged inside the main installer. The detection is actually incorrect, since the sponsor program is not a Trojan at all.

And since the installer is detected, it doesn't matter whether you installed the sponsor or not.

Same here. No Sponsor installed, and no alerts from OneCare 1.5
