Cookie, there's no write such an in depth explanation as to whether or not Plus! is spyware, as he said already, he knows about the sponsor program and that it's optional.

Unfortunately alegator, Messenger Plus! does have bundled adware, so it will be detected on adware/spyware removal programs, and most class LOP/C2Media as a very bad piece of ad/spyware (even if it's not that bad).
I know he knows, but notice that I explained in my post why it is detected as such and notice also I give an answer to his question/remark that he is surprised that it is detected. My post is not just a "the sponsor is optional" post...

Also, I already said what Absorbation has said, in different words, eg: see last sentence of third paragraph and comments under point 1.

Also, what many people forget lately (so it seems) is that threads are not only read by those who started it and reply to it. Many other people read threads too and it is also for them that you must sometimes explain stuff in more depth, otherwise more threads are created and stuff must be repeated again.
