Better idea it displays for 5 mins after signin for that day then disappears for the rest of the day ;)
and then comes back the next day


No you have problem with that banner when you sign in, because thats when you look for your online buddies, after that who cares about it :p

O.P. RE: Legality of Messenger Plus!
The quote was taken from a support msn newsgroup, where someone asked was it legal to use polygamy patches... Jonathan Kay told them that you could get them from mess, and as it didnt do any 'harm' he would tell you where to get it from.

But he proceeded to say the legality of polygamy is quiestioned, as it is of Plus!

Jonathan Kay can be found here if you'd like to mail him or anything:

http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/defau...p?icp=msn&slcid=US

(btw, this aint gonna be no war about how it is legal, so no mass e-mailing/posting or anything, simply an opinion...)

Hi Daniel,

The original poster knew what they were looking for, and just wanted the site, that's why I
didn't go into the other options (Trillian, using Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger on XP,
etc.).

The legality issue is a bit gray -- even the legality of Messenger Plus is somewhat
questioned
.  However, in my own opinion (this isn't an interpretation of the EULA/Terms of
Use, or an official Microsoft response) as long as it's not harming Messenger (the service),
not harming users,
not making the author a profit, and enhancing the Messenger user
experience, I don't see a problem with it.
