    i have msn-plus and it's great, like the sounds, boss protection, all convos in one window etc. i'm wondoring what other good add-ons for msn messenger are. and i had a friend who had a program that showed what the other person was typing, when he exited the convo, and other things, does anyone know what this program is called and where i can get it? thnx

    that site will have every you want for fidling with msn instant messenger...including the very anoying msn unlimited nudges where you can send thousands and thousands of nudges without pausing and the victim will not be able to get off the screen.

    i personaly dont mess with my msn...and msn plus is just adware.

    yes mesenegr plus is adware, microsoft anti spyware found it AND it also tells you when your instaling that you are about to install a component that is deemed adware but keeps the rest of the program adware free.

    I guess this is the fall of Microsoft......I have no clue how to upgrade winxp to something better like you could see the differences from 2000 to xp but i cant seem to see something like that done to the next microsoft os

    Rav009, if you would have taken some time to do some research on msn plus, you would know that it DOES NOT install any of the adware that it contains UNLESS you choose to allow it.
    *it offers to install the program with a sponsorship add on, which is the addware/mallware. if you choose not to install the add on, you won't have any of the cr*p. and just so you know, microsoft anti spyware is the ONLY program that complains about msn plus, ewido and Ad Aware SE don't bug me about it, and do not recognise it as a threat.*

    hmm well i didnt install the adware component and like you said microsoft antispyware was the only one that complained.

    it does say though when your instaling if you dont install the adware component then the program will not be adware free?

    If you choose to install without the sponsor, the addware will not be installed, but some of the files msn plus uses are flagged because they are used by the program and the addware.

    And btw, the main reason microsoft anti spyware complains, is that microsoft is ticked off that patchou refused to sell his program over to them in recent talks between the two, and ever since that msn plus has been flagged as a real threat, rather than a possible threat.
