Sorry if this has come up before, no doubt it has.

I opted to install Plus! without the sponsor program but it still appears on my computer.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but the same thing happens.

Now the only thing that I can suggest is that other users on the same computer have installed it in their own area not realising that there is an option to install without the sponsor and that this has led to it being installed on my area too.

How can I permanently get rid of it?

Can't help but after I installed without sponsor, two icons are on my desktop, Casino and Poker - are tehse anything to do with plus?

Read How to uninstall ad-ware/sponsor for instructions on removal.
Also make sure you have internet explorer fully closed when you uninstall other wise the toolbar cant be removed.

kieranissafe & sprinkles... if the sponsor is still on there, PM me, I'll give you a link to the uninstaller.  Its very simple and fast. 

Thanks but I have already downloaded an uninstaller from the sponsor's website, but everytime my computer is turned off and then back on the sponsor comes back so my problem is how to keep it off permanently.

Make sure when you run the uninstaller, that way it can completely remove the sponsor.

hmm, can you please stop flaming at patchou, he needs to earn an income, and its not as bad as you make it out to be.

Simply go to add/remove programs via. control panel, and uninstall messenger plus! make sure MSN Messenger and Microsoft Internet Explorer are fully closed down, otherwise, it will not uninstall...

after this, you can install Messenger Plus! without the sponsor.

Hey fedup you have installed the optional tool bar that is included with msg plus! please note this is adware and is easily removed. Please see http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=21598 for details of how to uninstall it.

If the sponsor's setp was damaged by another program (like an spyware removal program), I suggest you disable your protection software, reinsstall Plus! with thesponsor and uninstall it again, it should take care of everything.
