Hello,
I'm a Messenger Plus! user for a pretty long time already
Whenever I first installed MSAS,It's detected the Messenger Plus
But the recommended action was to "Ignore" it
So I've certainly ignored
Since then,It's never detecting Messenger Plus! again
It's auto-scanning my computer everyday
And auto-update is also enabled
My current version is
Microsoft AntiSpyware Version:  1.0.615
Spyware Definition Version: 5747

And it's never detecting Messenger Plus! again

So,I'm just wondering
What's the problem?(Kinda,Why there are so many people that complaining about this?Messenger Plus! is really coming with the optional adware and the recommended action is ignore the warning)
I think it's ok
MSAS is just warning that Messenger Plus! is coming with an optional adware.

Thanks in advance for any explanations!

it now blocks this becuase it blockes anything that could be a threat in anyway shape for form

it blocked some javascript i made the other day as well please sign the petition

The newer version of MSAS the warning to a high alert, when you installed plus! it only came up with a moderate warning because thats what it was in the definition files at that time, seeing as you set it to ignore that time, it didnt alert you when it's warning changed in the new version. The same thing has happened to me, and proably a fair few other users on this board too.

Edit: And coming in second place...

In a recent update of Microsoft Anti-Spyware, the threat level of Messenger Plus! was lowered from 3/5 to 2/5, which was a good thing, however, the program itself, msgplus.exe, is now detected immediately at system startup or whenever run manually by the user, and the following message is displayed in bold red: "Warning, Messenger Plus! Software Bundler is trying to install!".
