I just tested the beta install myself and there is a prompt to NOT install the sponsor stuff, but it looks too much like a "EULA" type prompt for someone pounding through the install. Even tho there may have been a few that actually read these dialogs and thought it a "good idea" to support the program, none were aware that they would be ultimately getting their AV client to email me. 
First of all, even legal notices and EULA's are meant to be read. Second of all, you even don't need to read the actual EULA to know that it is about a additional sponsor program. Also, the current installation screens look nothing like "other 'regular' legal notices". The current screens are very clear that it is about a sponsor or at least "something" different then a normal standard EULA from the program itself...

Use a good antivirus program then. Sorry, although I understand the concearns, but there is no virus what-so-ever in the sponsor and certainly not in Messenger Plus! itself. That some AV's detect the Swizzor Trojan is something they should fix (in including a proper and more detailed scanning method), not the sponsor.
