O.P. Ads at bottom blocking tasks
Hello everyone, ive got Messenger Plus 3 installed and at the bottom where you have the options to add contacts etc, there are these banner ads.  I have tried turning on the ad blocking feature within Plus but the ads still appear!

My current Setup is:

Windows XP - (SP2 installed)
MSN Messenger 6.2
Messenger Plus 3
Zone Alarm (Free Version)

:)

This is is in the plus preferences section:

Plus>Preferences>Contact List>General Options> Hide the advertisement Banner.....This should do the trick :).


Try this, file that I post as a attachment..

The best advice would be to upgrade to the newest MsgPlus (3.2) where this bug is fixed at http://www.msgplus.net/download.php :)

You'Re not supposed to distribute cracks on this site, especially when the latest version of Plus! does the same thing in a more legal way :).
