Loosing anyone !! by ghostout on 05-11-2006 at 08:57 AM

Hello

I have a big problem. I have loosing anyone on WLM.
I have only installed MSG+

I have only unrar MSGPlusLiveByCookieRevised.rar, aunch MSGPlusLiveByCookieRevised.exe and open WLM to finish the installation and now everyone is loosed.

What must I do now to solve this problem ?

You downloaded Plus! from a source other than the official one. What you downloaded is a virus...there is no official release of Msg Plus!Live yet.

Please read About Messenger Plus! for Windows Live Messenger (MSN 8) for information on Plus!Live progress...

Messenger Plus! Live is not released yet. Anything you find on the web like that FAKE and are malicious programs.

Please do NOT, never ever, download from other sites than the official sites (http://www.msgplus.net and http://www.msgpluslive.net).

There is nothing we can do about the loss of your contacts, sorry. I advise to remove the fake version and scan your computer for virusses and spyware.



Personal note: the name of the file is clear proof that someone out there is trying to give Messenger Plus! a bad name. Not to mention that this file is clear proof that some people (connected to the msgsshit forum, no doubt seeing the recent events) clearly wants to try to give me a bad name also. (I'm actually honored as that means I had an impact on that person and I'm on his mind. ROFLOL...)

Would that be a fake messenger, adn that no one is loosed but actually you are working on the program that doesn't connect to msn servers rather it sends you password and username to some other source and open a blank contact list just to trick you!!??

in anycase change your password, no one knows what have this program did with your login information.

The remove it as cookie said, and search for the real wlm program and run it.

regards

This isn't about Windows Live Messenger, but about Messenger Plus! Live.

There is nothing to search for.

i meant in case my description was right :P. because years ago fake messengers were available, and i thought there might be some more advanced version now.:D under the name of msgplus, but it rather replace the whole thing.


see ya

RE: Loosing anyone !! by CookieRevised on 05-11-2006 at 12:32 PM

Read the many other threads about the fake Messenger Plus! versions, they are all over the forum (almost). Or even simply click and read the big yellow banner on the forum's main page which also tells about the malicious versions circulating around. Or follow the link posted by SunShine...

All in all, please read something before posting stuff which confuses the original posters, especially in such critical topics.


RE: Loosing anyone !! by zaher1988 on 05-11-2006 at 12:37 PM

Yeah but any of those was called MSGPlusLiveByCookieRevised.rar ?
anyway i just wanted to help! it might have been something new!!

bye


RE: Loosing anyone !! by Sunshine on 05-11-2006 at 01:05 PM

You forgot to read the first post carefully zaher...let me point it out to you:

quote:
MSGPlusLiveByCookieRevised.rar
Note it says MSGPlusLiveBy not WLMBy wich is the first thing to indicate that this is not a standalone program (IM Client)
quote:
..and open WLM to finish the installation
Proof nr 2 that it's not a standalone program...otherwise he wouldn't have to open WLM...


RE: Loosing anyone !! by zaher1988 on 05-11-2006 at 01:17 PM

I know , but look what i have said.

they pretend it is msgplus, or actually they are marketing their malicious program under the name of msgplus live because people really want it, but it might not be a fake version of msgplus, i can be whatever program that runs within or replace wlm.

anyway i dont know:P! whatever. keep me out of this:P! lol

You said it, not the first poster..he didn't mention it was to be a replacement anywhere...

Yes it can be anything (this is the reason why we always warn not to download/trust software from anywhere but the official site)..but people want Msg Plus!Live on WLM, not a substitute IM Client so i don't think replacing is a possibility here (if it was that they would probably have distributed it as WLM+Plus!Live). What it is is a "program" that will delete your contactlist as soon as you "complete the installation by opening WLM" meaning it will connect to MSN/WLM servers to delete your contacts (might do more than that, who knows what else they've built in, but if you're lucky it's only that). I can't say wether this is a one time thing or if it keeps doing that everytime you sign in as i don't have this program ( i would like to know where this file is obtained from tho...to ghostout: pm me or Cookie the link please).

That's the whole point here..you don't know...if you don't know and see the correct solution is already given why post assumptions etc. to confuse the first poster? If it's solved leave it is the best advice i can give you. Remember it's not about the amount of help given (amount of posts) it's about the quality of the help given...wrong advice, confusing people isn't doing anybody any good and makes solving the problem even harder.

if u have chat logging on go through your chat logs and get the email addresses from the file names of the .txt files..

would that work?
