I also experienced this situation, which btw is frustrating, irritating, and of course, annoying; so I used the patch and it actually worked, thanks Sunshine!

And Timor, first you have to quit MSN Messenger in order to apply the patch. If MSN Messenger is still running (or visible on your taskbar) it means it's locked because it is in use.

If that doesn't work, try to verify the path for MSN Messenger.

Hope you can fix it...

After speaking with Patchou yesterday he assured me that the next release version of Messenger Plus! this issue will be resolved.

Here is a quote from Patchou about the issue from our conversation.

it was just a matter of good-old hooking technique to find out that Microsoft is using two windows for its banners now (one for simple banners, one for complex html ones)

RE: Banner bug
Windows Xp Pro Sp1
Msn Messenger 6.2.0133
Msn Plus 3.01.94

I solved the problem by blocking the IP-range from 207.68.178.239 to 207.68.207.255 (rad.msn.com)  and 208.173.208.153 (global.msads.net) :P
