"Messenger Plus! Live builds upon the functionality of Microsoft's Windows Live Messenger adding more functionality."
My sentence was better 
Maybe not "better", but it is far more neutral.

cool...
Although I have my doubts about:
quote:
As of the 17th of August 2005, the Messenger Plus! website contained a petition to Microsoft's anti-spyware division regarding Windows Defender's (known as Microsoft AntiSpyware at the time) detection of the Messenger Plus! executable as spyware and subsequent warning that Messenger Plus! would attempt to install spyware at runtime (post-installation), rather than the setup program itself that contained the installer for the threat detected.
Simplyfying that (difficult) sentence a bit makes:
"As of the 2005-08-07, the Plus! website contained a petition to Microsoft's anti-spyware division regarding Windows Defender's detection of the Plus! executable as spyware, rather than the setup program itself that contained the installer for the threat detected."
The underlined part seems wrong. I'm not saying it is wrong grammar, just that it seems wrong. Especially "for the threat detected".
Can this be reworded?
PS: I already removed "Live" in that paragraph. At that time it was still MP!, not MP!L.
