O.P. No spyware?
Hello everybody, I'm stranding and I'm new here.

Only 15 minutes ago I had the pleasure to installe the new messenger plus! 3. The website from where I have downloaded it (www.neowin.net) claimed this program has no spyware or something at all. But since I have installed plus! My startpage has suddenly changed to http://mysearchnow.com/ and there is no way I can change it back. The menu at internetoptions is all greyed out.  I tried spybot: S&D but this program couldn't find the program. Plus! is the only program I have installed today so this must be the reason. Can anyone help me?

Regards, Sander

When you are installing msn plus, you either agree or disagree to the sponser, evidently you agreed to it. Search in the forums for people who have had the same problem as you to get a quick answer.

It's not spyware, just the sponsorprogramme. Uninstall Plus!, reboot and reinstall Plus! but now choose "I do NOT accept and I do NOT want to install the sponsorprogramme".
