When you install and agree to the spyware, the web browser IE is solidly hijacked to mysearchnow.com.
Using the uninstall which Patchou insists works, in fact leaves the browser hijacked to mysearchnow, which continually attempts to reassert itself as the home page, requiring manual intervention to remove.
Wrong.... first, if something can't be undone, that's called "anoyence", not "harmfull"... Second, The uninstalling DOES work. Did you close the browser windows before you uninstalled the sponsor?
Did you entered the security number in to special window when uninstalling? (edit: you didn't mention anything about that in your 'detailed' reply) These are simple instructions which you must follow and are presented at you when you uninstall. Of course you need to read the instructions first before you know what to do and of course something can't be uninstalled if it is still running, you need to shut it down first. Tbh, you should know that, giving the fact that you do this for your living...

Therefore the price for development is ad bundling, as I said.
Indeed "bundling" not "forced installing" (like so many other freeware programs)... I call that hardly a price-tag though...

Ahum....
With all respect, but it's not because you do this for your living, that you know everything... General speaking, yes your right; there are many harmfull spyware and even adware bundled programs. But this program, Messenger Plus!, has a very stripped down sponsor package. And although it comes from LOP, we can assure you that it IS heavely stripped down and can't be compared to the normal adware/spyware that is commonly associated with LOP.
If you encountered not-"family-friendly" things in the sponsor, then Patchou will kindly investigate this and take the proper actions to let it remove if he finds proof of it. But by all means, don't call us/him stupid, ignorant or whatever and don't blundly say that the sponsor is a harmfull piece of spyware without checking the facts...
EDITED, because I don't wanna make another post for this, see bold and italic text...
