I have been working on this for weeks and hours today; I have now un-installed AVG antivirus, ad-aware, spybot, and Zone alarm! After that I re installed messenger plus with the sponser just like he said, then went to add/remove menue and removed it. Restart system and it still comes back every time!
Also, It took me days to figure out this thing came from messenger plus so don't even try to say it's MY fault for using adware removal tools! The thing just simply will not go away and it's driving me crazy!
Did you have your internet browser fully closed (total exit...from taskbar and systray also) when you uninstalled? Note: something that is in use can't be removed.

Using Adaware (or any other spy-/adware remover) will remove parts of Plus! sponsor therefor cripling the uninstaller of plus! sponsor. This has been tested over an over.
