RE: Download.com bans Messenger Plus!
I think we have to see this matter in two divided parts.

More and more people find out how much trouble spyware and adware can cause you. Websites like download.com take advantage of this by stating that they have a clear policy against it.

Although things like this might not be very nice for the spreading of Messenger Plus! I think download.com is going the right way by simply disallowing everything that has anything to do with spyware and/or adware on their website.

Of course I love Messenger Plus! like most of us but I think the sponsor is a bit overkill... I do want to offer my support but I don't want my computer full of ads for a "simple plugin"... So I'm also not going to defend it here...

Ask yourself... Do you love Messenger Plus!? Do you want to support it? Then why didn't you accept the sponsor...
