O.P. The Best Reason not to use Msgplus
Hi, I have tried using the previous versions of MsgPlus 3 sometime ago, I liked it very much. But at one time i didn;t have the time to use Messenger anymore, and I uninstalled everything to save storage space for my work.

Well, schedules are not so tight now and I have downloaded and installed MsgPlus3 yesterday. After installation, what I encountered really dissapointed me.

It installed all this advertisements stuff on my desktop, e.g. Poker etc. and a Search toolbar in IE. My AVG antivirus even detected a Trojan!

I have uploaded the screenshots at http://www.geocities.com/e_immortals/msgplus.jpg
and

Now, I cant disable the Search toolbar in IE, I have used Noadware2.01, and also tried looking for the files,, but couldn't find them. In IE, the View>Toolbars section doesn;t display the selection of the search bar, which means it's kinda anonymous and I can't delete or hide it.

I suggest not to use Messenger Plus until the developer removes these adware, if he wants to advertise, no problem! Just place an ad space somewhere in Messenger while chatting or something similar.

Back to my problem, can anybody help me with it? I wish to get rid of the toolbar in IE.


Thanks & Regards,
Ty
