COMPLAINT by estherli307 on 08-05-2005 at 03:48 PM

I have a complaint about Msg Plus. I recently found out that this program has third-party adware. I uninstalled it and then rebooted my computer. For those who have it, quickly uninstall it and then reboot your computer. For those who don't, don't ask about it. If you want to make sure I'm not lying, download Microsoft Anti-Spyware.:plus::plus2:

this adware is optional. you agreed to install it during installation

this screen is in the installer:

Additionally, please read Microsoft ANtiSpyware Beta1 - False detections (not only Plus!) for more information related to Microsoft AntiSpyware's detection, which can be rather misleading ;)

what if [even if it WAS dangerous] everyone here wanted to keep it installed?
