O.P. RE: Messenger Plus installed SCUMWARE on my pc
The file is installed in c:\program files\poke for cool and is installed by this scumware.  It was installed by this scumware when it illegal forced itself onto my computer last time.

The sponsor program bundled with Plus is custom-built to be less dodgy than other versions. I don't think it's fair to judge Plus based on your previous experience with other programs.

Ok, the fact that you're saying it's less dodgy sort of implies that you agree it's dodgy.  You probably didn't intend it to sound like that but I'm sure I'm not the only one who agrees that this scumware is neither useful nor legitimate.  Certainly, from the few people I've spoken to about this since last night (most of which use Messenger Plus), the consensus is that this is not a welcome addition.  I've pm'd Patchou today offering to help find an alternative because when word spreads about this I can see a lot of people turning their backs on Messenger Plus - certainly, in my circle anyway. :S
