Well I e-mailed PareToLogic. They have changed their description. Put the correct name "Messenger Plus! Live". Removed the comment about Patchou and also added that the sponsor is optional. Result!

thats it:

this morning i cheked the description and here is the new one:

"Messenger Plus! Live is an add-on for Windows Live Messenger. The user should be aware that the software bundles with optional "sponsor" programs."

anyway when you scan with xsoftspy messenger plus! live is  detected as a treat with or without the sponsor installed.

Hello Chris,

Thank you for getting back to us. We have addressed your concerns with our spyware analysis team. The decision of the detection is based on the software being bundled with optional "sponsor" programs. Our detection is such that it does allow our users to make the choice of whether to remove an item or not with the offering of the ignore list. As this can be a potentially unwanted program, our detection will remain. Should the vendor wish us to evaluate further, we are happy to do so and would require additional information from them.

Please know that we value your input and we strive for transparancy and wish to ensure our consumers have the best information possible.

Please let us know if we may offer you any further information or assistance.

Warm regards,

Faye
