O.P. Messenger Plus! Sponsor Removal Instructions
Messenger Plus! Optional Sponsor Agreement

This area of the site aims to help you uninstall the optional sponsor program that plus! has bundled in it, to find out more information about the optional sponsor program please click: HERE. If you would like to know how to uninstall showing you in a video click here if you have dial-up or click here if you have cable or asdl.

This section will have videos, pictures and text to help you uninstall the sponsor program quickly and easily, and how to uninstall without the sponsor program again. (click images for full size)

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.

Is it out of order for me to ask for this thread to be made sticky

You movie is outdated, it's not showing a option to un-install sponsor only.
