Wow very nice. They were all sent at once weren't they? Or gradually sent each day/week?
See the links in the first post in this thread

And sorry if I don't share the same enthiousiasm of this news, because:

Errrmm... if there is one thing which nobody had a problem with than it was that the setup is picked up as a bundler!! Afterall, this is the only executable that contains bundled software and should be detected, not the rest (hence what the petition was about AFAIK)...

Wasn't that one of the problems? That msgplus.exe itself was flagged (instead of the setup)? So it was changed?

Msgplus.exe has got nothing todo with the sponsor, so it shouldn't be detected, sponsor installed or not.


So, In my POV, not much has changed appart from removing the warning "a software budler is trying to install" when executing msgplus.exe. The logical and big issue isn't touched at all: that msgplus.exe is totally harmless and that it is only msgplus-setup.exe which needs to be flagged...
