You have accidently installed the optional Messenger Plus! Sponsor software.

This is software that gives Patchou (the developer of Messenger Plus!) a bit of extra money, so he can create the messenger plus software free of charge.

To uninstall it, simply uninstall Messenger Plus! from the Add/Remove Programs section, and reinstall Plus!, but this time, when you come to the sponsor agreement dialogue (as seen below), choose "I refuse to give my support, Install Messenger Plus! without the sponsor"

Saral, you no longer need to uninstall messenger plus, if you simply go to add/remove programs, and press "Change/Remove" some dialog will come up asking you if you want to uninstall the sponsor program, or if you want to uninstall the sponsor program and messenger plus!...

Choose "Uninstall the Sponsor Program" and it will uninstall...

Meaning no reinstallation of plus! is required.

Installation of messenger plus


Below is a quick guide of installing msg plus. Sponser removal instructions are included.

Save the file in an apropate place e.g. c / program files

Once the file is finished downloading, find where it is saved, double click the icon and click run. Then follow the on screen instructions.

Soon you will see it asking whether you want to install the sponsor (c2 media). Clicking accept will also install a toolbar in your internet browser, this is classed as adware. The sponsor in optional and if you do not want it just click I refuse to give my support, and click next.

If you have accidentally installed the sponsor, here is a quick video on how to uninstall it:

Messenger plus will then install, when installation is finished open msn messenger, sign in and enjoy the new features. The first time you sign in you will get a quick guide to the preferences.
