"Now"? That has always been its behaviour... And it's just doing it's job to be honest, and better than the other anti spyware programs available, for that matter.

More information about Microsoft Anti-Spyware and the false readings for Messenger Plus! can be found here:

Microsoft's Anti-spyware Software...
Microsoft® Windows AntiSpyware (Beta)
MS Antispyware says Messenger Plus is adware
Microsoft ANtiSpyware Beta1 - False detections (not only Plus!)
Unless you are saying that it always appears no matter how many times you tell it that it's to be ignored.
Does it continue to appear after every restart? After you click to ignore the threat and then click Yes and Allow does it ever come up again? If Not, then this is old news.

I did the same as Absorbation, so I thought it was something new because it never did it to me before.

Well, that is new...... what the hell is that and since when msgplus.exe is a threat to anybody? I'm going to contact MS about this and if they don't do something about it, this time, I will. This is outrageous.

Thanks for reporting.

Yeah, that's just stupid, a high threat level for something that (since it's already installed) does no harm...

You kick they asses! ;)
