RE: IMPORTANT! Strictly forbidden plug-in is spreading the net!
Just to clear some things up:
What I understand from dafrizz and the <removed> site is that it's supposed to be a hacking tool which attacks people using Msgplus. I think this is not true and it's just a virus/trojan that's installs itself and claims to be Msgplus.
If you read the readme of the tool it says you have to type commands like
"name(...)" where '...' should be the name you want you contact's name to change to.
These are no normal Msgplus commands... (which start with a '/').
@ lp15:
There is NO need to remove Plus. This is a virus/trojan, and it doesn't spread trough MSN/Msgplus, so only if you download/execute it yourself it's a problem. Just don't run it and never accept anything like it from your contacts.
@ Juzzi:
Msgplus has nothing to do with it in the first place, but the 'hacking tool' claims to be a tool which attacks Msgplus users. I think Microsoft is just being naïve; this is just a MSN trojan which probably also works on MSN users without Msgplus.
