O.P. Sponser removed no getting other exes
Hello,

yesterday I removed MSN Messenger Plus's sponsor and ever since I did that 2 new High Danger leval exe's wear useing the MessengerPlus folder to get in.  The exe's are called qiibdsvc.exe and yxfadrbf.exe.  Now are these something msn pessenger plus purpasly lets in just like the sponsor or is this an actual privasy threat?

EDIT: can someone move this to help and support I meant to post that there nd posted it here by misstake

The sponser does not install anything additionally if you remove it,

did you remove it correctly following Patchou's instructions?

Secondly run Spybot and Adware to check.

hmm ok but I just noticed im still getting that blue thing on the bottem of my browser that has a search bar on it some kindof casino link and stuff like that on it (ill post a pic of it when it shows up again) and the links in my favortes the sponsor added that im not able to delete.  How come i still get those even though the sponser is gone.  also after doing another scan i found something called lop.com (plus's sponsor site I believe) appiering as a tracking cookie are they still allowed in even though they were deleted?

Okay, as far as i know these files should not be there since the sponsor installs to a different folder. Also they are not messenger plus! files either.

Could this possibly be a new virus trying to frame patchou? o.O

I doubt that it is, he probably hasn't uninstalled the sponsor properly.

Saviour, follow these instructions exactly, don't take your own roots.

Download the latest Messenger Plus! then install it with the sponsor, then after it has fully installed, restart your computer, and then go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs, then Uninstall the Messenger Plus! sponsor via. the Messenger Plus! uninstaller.

Yes, but, again, the sponsor isn't suppose to create anything in the msgplus folder, is it? And those files aren't created by messenger plus either.

I might open up my VM and see later.

I didnt take my own roots I did excatly what it said

I went to my control panel, clicked ad or remove programs, looked for MSN Messenger Plus, clicked change/remove, selected remove sponsor, typed in the code it asked me to type in, then clicked finish. Excatly what it said to do to remove it.  I even went back and checked just t make sure it uninstaled and it did.
