Hi guys, i'm new here and hope someone can help me out. First of all, i'm a long term MSGPlus user and never had this problem before, and also i read the stickied topic already, i.e this one here:
http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=69388
the solution shown in that topic says to use a new SmileyCentral.dll or something like that, but i never installed SmileyCentral and don't plan to since it's not trusthworthy and has tons of popup ads and i consider it as a spyware.
I never had to install it to get my MSGPlus working anyway, i'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x86 and never had this problem before, and i think the reason i have this problem is because i installed some new antivirus programs like Comodo Internet Security & Avira Antivirus, but i did add them to the firewall exception list so it should work, but it doesn't.
Also, by MSGPlus not showing up i mean that it's installed and the first time configuration window shows up, but i don't see the Plus option on the tabs or anywhere else, i see nothing related to MSGPlus on my messenger.
I know it's installed properly because if i tried to import scripts or skins, they get imported, but they don't show up or anything. But this proves that i did install MSGPlus properly, because you can't even import skins or scripts without having it installed in the first place.
And yes in case someone asks, i'm using a clean version of WLM 9.0, and i reinstalled everything twice, i.e removed MSG Plus and WLM 9, and installed them again.
I'm not using Mess or Apatch, and i'm not using Messenger Discovery Live either, well i do use those but i haven't installed them yet. Everything is basically clean and un-altered.
I never have this problem though, i install MSGPlus tons of times on my Windows 7, i installed it on my laptop and my other PCs and never had a problem, so i'm thinking it's the new antivirus apps i have, but i need those badly so don't wanna switch to a different one either.......any suggestions?
