logicly there should.. i dunt even know why they do this i mean i love the product.. befire internet explorer 7 with pop up blocker came in used the pop-up thingy and after that i still usedd the emocotions and the mouse icons.. but my friends always get mad at the msg and i dont rlly like either that so..
Internet Explorer 7??? :O!!! Wow!!! Well done mate!!! :D.. :P...
My web seach is so full of shit!!! Properly the worst and most annoying piece of crappy software ever written!!!... Including Smiley Central, Fun buddy Icon, etc... F**k adware/spyware that behave this way as they do!...

To may73alliance:
I would advise you to tell all your friends that "sends" these messages to you, that they they check their "Add or remove Programs" for any programs that has to do with this Fun Buddy Icon, Cursor Mania, Smiley Central, Popular Screensavers, My Web Seach, Search Assistant, or anything simliar.. And then after that run a Adware scan either using Adware, Spybot Search and Destroy or Spysweeper!... Because if they installed this program their computer is FULL of loads of these crappy software!...

You would expect this normally yes, but in this case, don't count on it... You will most likely be able to find the registry key in the Run section, but if you delete this, then program will most likely make sure to create this key again... Most programs like this tend to do this, to make sure you have a lesser chance of messing with them... But I can not tell you for certain because I haven't tried Fun Buddy Icon...

* tool++ wants to burn people who have smileycentral, along with the makers of smileycentral.

Oh, a girl I knew had this crap on her system, and then I was telling her about it and she was like "OMFG MSG+ is spyware". And I'm like "No..." and she's like "WTF MY DAD'S MATE IS N INTERWEB ENGENEER" so I give up.

There's just some people that wont be helped...and for the, there's no hope.

I basically need to make a big long page that goes through putting on all the "Good" apps (Firefox, MSG+, Winamp, NN-Script, Peerguardian...etc.etc.etc) in the most easy to use manner...but that'd take years :(

edit: Cool forum :) - the /me thing's pretty cool ;)

I kept reciving and sending out the buddy icon thing to.....the only way that worked for me was was removing "buddy icon" from my computer...so if you did download it remove it,its no good! cuz if ur reciveing it n u did d/l it then u r sending it out to other ppl as well....and if u didnt d/l it tell the ppl that r sending it to u to go and remove it from u system as soon as possible..it can also give you alot of spam as well :S
