O.P. Messenger Plus! not safe?
Recently my sister's laptop got infected with spyware and ad-ware programs. I turned for help to Gladiator Security forum. The help me with the problems and now the laptop is clean. One thing that they told me and came to my attention was this:

"I recommend you use Add/Remove Programs to uninstall Messenger Plus. While the program itself contains no spyware/malware, many systems using it eventually end up with LOP and other exploits infecting the computer. In fact, one of the optional programs you can install along with MP3 is LOP!!!

FYI: Your current infection is LOP, no doubt from Messenger Plus 3!"

I dind't install the sponsor programs when I installed Messenger Plus to my sister's laptop and I been using this plug in on my pc for a long time now and never had a problem with spyware or ad-ware infections. How much of this is true?
