RE: spyware noticed when installing new version of messenger plus!!
Please do more research from these forums before posting what you think you have found out.

C2Media itself can be harmful. BUT the Optional Sponsor included in Plus! is nothing compared to what they normally package. Because Patchou cares about his users he has requested that C2Media remove any adult content, and tracking information, and making harmful system changes. Being a beta tester of Plus! we need to test Plus! in various conditions with and without the sponsor. I can tell you that the sponsor in Plus!2 would go as far as changing the network name on your computer. This has since been removed and all the sponsor does is the following.
  • Add desktop items
  • Add links in favorites
  • Change Internet Explorer start page
  • Add a search bar into Internet Explorer

I urge you to do more research before trying to post what you think you have found about a program.
