RE: Use of the Sponsor program
I don't go around telling people to install it "or else", but whenever someone downloads Plus! because I tell them about it, I mention the sponsor and how safe it is (and the fact that it's friggin' OPTIONAL!).

Btw, if anyone really cares, I voted for the third option. I encourage, not demand. :P

I had the impression that WLM was a chat client with ads, not adware. :/

Adware is a program which its only purpose is to serve ads, and has an EULA to go with it and all.

Spyware and Malware is when they shove it up your butt without an option and without you even realizing it.
