WDZ, well, like the many I know who found plus yesterday, we all believed plus was MSN software.  The msgplus.net site looks like an MSN site, the butterfly closely resmebles the MSN official butterfly and the name "messenger plus", to many of us 'casual' users, lead us to believe it was official MSN software.
you should learn that if a site or software doesn't come from msn.com is not from Msn :rolleyes:

If we wanted to cheat you, we would have put the msn logo and duplicated a msn-like website, and we didn't. We just did a site that was a similar style so as for everybody to realise that it is about an addon for messenger.

Its like saying all Windows programs are crap because they use windows buttons... and a titlebar at the top. :rolleyes:

Plus, the logo both in the site and the software clearly says "an EXTENSION by PATCHOU" (not by Microsoft... :rolleyes:)



quote:
Therefore, messenger plus, the originator of the software and the site itself misrepresents the software.
urhh... No. :rolleyes: where?

Test 1

quote:
Then, post your results as reply to this thread

Windows crashed after the installation.
Reboot. Plus! didn't load * (no entry Plus! appeared in the menu, and no entry msnplus appeared in the Task Manager).
I manually started Plus by running the program. Plus! still didn't load * (still no entry Plus! in the menu, still no entry msnplus in the Task Manager).
I got the recovery message. I chose the first option, and anything worked properly.
To be continued when I've rebooted...

* Maybe this is because I installed Plus not in his default folder, but in C:Program filesMSN MessengerMSN plus? I want all my messenger add-ons to be in one folder :).

(don't forget to confirm that you were experiencing freeze problems with the old version).

I had.

By the way, I'm not sure 2.10.32 does work fine here, when I downgraded to it Windows keep crashing. 2.02 did work.

The file starts with:
2003/05/05 19:21:24 -
2003/05/05 19:21:24 - ************ Messenger has been started ************
2003/05/05 19:21:24 - Performing quick initialization
2003/05/05 19:21:24 - Messenger Plus! build: 2034
2003/05/05 19:21:24 - Program hooked: C:PROGRAM FILESMSN MESSENGERMSNMSGR.EXE
2003/05/05 19:21:24 - Quick-Init step 1

But that's all after the crash.

[edit]After rebooting Plus doesnt load again but manually running the programme works fine now.[/edit]

Deleted files of version 1 (I couldn't find an uninstaller, plus didn't show up in control panel - software), installed version 2.

No crash while plus installs, everything is ok.
I rebooted.
Everything works still fine: plus! loads on startup.
Thanks patchou!
