@djdannp, from the list of the apps in the link you posted, i have these 2 installed:
ThreatFire
PC Tools Spyware Doctor
which should be the ones causing the conflict i guess, i can disable spyware doctor but i need to keep Threatfire on, my computer has been hacked twice and i've had a lot of information stolen from me, and all this happened within a month, so i need to use some what decent antivirus programs and the suggested free antivirus programs suggested from the link you posted just aren't good enough........is there a way to solve this conflict other than uninstalling them?
edit:
I know i can add programs to whitelist or add them as exception so they can still run, just like adding a program to a Firewall exception list, but out of all the files in the Messenger Plus! Live folder, only 'Mptools' is a .exe file, the rest are .dll files, so how can i make this work?? Because i've already tried adding Mptools.exe to the exception and fix the problem, i would assume so since i think the .dll files are the ones that launch MSGPlus Live when you launch WLM.......but they aren't .exe files so i can't add them, and i tried re-registering them by right clicking and register component, i also tried to open MPtools and it doesn't work, it just shows it's part of the MSGPlus Live and i should refer to the documentation message....
I also tried disabling Threatfire protection fully, and tried to launch WLM, and MSGPlus Live still doesn't show up. And the weird thing is, whenever i try an uninstall of MSGPlus Live, it just doesn't it fully without asking me to modify or repair it, normally it should show that box, so i'm guessing that MSGPlus Live isn't even fully registered into the system, which is why none of those showed up....
