nellie2 Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 All I would say is be careful with messenger add ons.... for example, messenger Plus is loaded with spyware :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilch Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 MSN plus you get the option to not load the sponser bit's (spyware....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellie2 Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 Can you not just run adware, s&d and hijack this it seemed to get rifd of it all for meWell you could but adaware will only get rid of what it is programmed for and you only have to look at the hijack board to see what else you can get infected with. Pilch has made a good point........ always check what you are installing and if you are given the option not to install ads then don't.Personally I just stay away from it altogether but then I am a bit paranoid like that.

A paranoid blonde is worse than a paranoid android, (with apologies to Douglas Adams). Seriously though I agree with nellie, this looks like more dross that your computer doesn't need.
