O.P. ADWare and Spyware
Hi.
    I noticed that the submitter of the post "SPYWARE" was getting slagged off for saying that he found spyware after installing Messenger Plus. Being an experienced computer and internet administrator and having various certifications, I would like to let all of you know that downloading Messenger Plus from this website installs bundling software on your computer this will install potentially unwanted software onto your computer system such as AdWare and Spyware. The program is bundled with 3rd Party programs which will run on your system. At this time I cannot advise you on whether to uninstall the program. I have logged the program which will be further checked by a member of the Microsoft Certified Advisory Team and if any potentially unwanted software is found, the owner of this site will be contacted immediately. In the meantime, it's up to you whether you use the software or not.

Thanks
