How to uninstall
If you have accidentally installed the optional sponsor program that is bundled in the Messenger Plus! installer, then don't use any adware/spyware removal programs, as this will corrupt the files, therefore making uninstallation of the file near impossible to uninstall. If you have used Adware/spyware removal software, then you will have to uninstall, then reinstall messenger plus, with the sponsor program again to get all of the files for the sponsor program back.
To uninstall sponsor software, close down internet explorer (in the system tray also), go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs, now scroll down the list until you find 'Messenger Plus! 3 click 'Change/Remove''.
In here, a pop-up will appear, on this, it will say "Would you like to uninstall, The Sponsor Program or Messenger Plus! with the sponsor program"... Select "uninstall the sponsor program" and only the sponsor program will be uninstalled...
follow uninstallation instructions, filling in the security box with the numbers aswell. This is just a safety procedure in case something tries to uninstall it without you knowing..
If you wait for about 2 minutes, you will notice that all of the icons on the desktop are gone, and there is no bar in Internet Explorer any more.
You can now reinstall Messenger Plus! without the sponsor program, and you will not have any more hassle whatsoever.
