O.P. RE: What a waste of time
Well, I found that uninstalling MSGPlus gave me the option to only uninstall the popups, so I didnt uninstall it completely. For what its worth, Patchou has done a lot to keep the annoyances of the sponsorship away. I honestly can't see why anyone would want those popups everythime they launch a browser, even if they did play casino. The whole concept is by far the most stupid approach to get more customers. But then again, there are a lot of stupid users out there who might actually click the adds, and it all pays off.

If only Microsoft could send you (Patchou) a paycheck reguarly instead... if only.

Yeah, that would be sweet wouldn't it? :). Thanks for your understanding (note: on your wife's account, you can always disable auto-update in the preferences :)).

in reply to your note; for the sake of simplicity we share the account on that home-machine.... I have my own work-laptop I use. ;-)

Oh that will be fine too. The auto-update setting is like any other preferences of Messenger Plus! and it's saved per different Messenger account (not just different Windows account... of course, if you already meant that, ignore that reply :p)

Ok. I didnt know that. But then again, the only MSN account used on that machine is hers. Maybe I'll just disable auto-update either way.

However, I'm pretty sure she'll be more careful from now on (No, I was not physical when telling her to read before clicking!).
