I am very annoyed because on installation of Messenger Plus I refused to use the sponsor. When I had fully installed Messenger Plus I wanted to go on the internet and realised that I had the sponsor toolbar underneath my address bar. This has annoyed me and I do not reccommend messenger plus to anyone!!!

Edit by Fraisie: I just removed your text formatting tags that were incorrect.

The toolbar in MsgPlus! does not contain porn, dylan.

Follow the uninstallation steps in Patchou's thread. It is impossible that if you refused it installed anyway.

Edit: my English isn't that good.

If you're ab-so-lu-te-ly sure that it IS caused by Plus!, uninstall it, and reinstall it and watch what you tick ;)

If you doubt it's Plus, use a adware scanner, for example the suite of Hitman PRO..

never remove adware products with scanners :S all adware prodeucts should have an uninstaller somewhere :P

otherwise it would be illegal and classed as spyware if you used a scanner re-install with the scanner and remove it by the instruction i gave you in the video guide ;)

Are you 100% sure you picked not to install the sponsor? Because quite frankly, this doesn't happen...
Are you sure you haven't installed something different with adware?
