O.P. Adware Program - removal?!
This follows on from thread started by John  4300.

I feel I have to take responsiblity for my young teenage son downloading messgenger plus with the sponser software.  At the same time he had no idea what it entailed and that it would be so difficult to remover.  I expect most people who accept it also have no idea what they are getting into.

However you developers need to take responsibility for including this Lop adware in your program which is the most hated adware on the internet.  The reason it is so hated is that it highjacks browsers and is so difficult to remove.  And when you think you have removed it, it keeps coming back.  Not because something new has been downloaded with lop software in, but because it is designed NOT to be permanently removed.

Do a search on"removing lop adware" on google and find out how hated this software is, for the reasons I have just given.

I have tried all your suggestions for removal, including going to lop.com and using their uninstaller - all to no avail.  They dont want their software removed.

Why you include with your download installation of Messenger Plus is beyond belief.
