RE: internet explorer hijack by msgplus!!
Thank you for your definitions. I'm quite aware of these.
I'm not debating the technical definitions, because in the end they don't matter. What does matter is the public's view of the product. Winning a legal case is not what's at stake here.
Bottom line is that Messenger Plus tries to infect (yes, infect) my computer with unwanted software. The details of how it's done or what that software should or should not be called is irrelevant. I did not want that software there and it's damn hard to get rid of.
The attitude I find at this board regarding this geniune problem is quite disturbing. I'm not rambling, I'm a customer with a complaint. Telling me that it's my own fault is a sure way to have the product bad-mouthed for a long time to come. Maybe longer than the product itself will survive.
