Avoid this at all costs. Make sure you do not install it. I tried it out for a week or so and at times felt like throwing my monitor across the room. It has to be the most annoying feature ever created.
In case you don't know what it is, it is an add-in that comes with Messenger Plus that is very annoying to get rid of. What happens is that every time that you open a new browser, you get this little annoying search tool bar that pops up along with a ad pop up. To further annoy you, you can guaruntee that you'll get another pop up every few pages that you visit.
I made the mistake of installing it once, hopefully no one will ever have to go through the pain I've been forced to endure. Learn from my mistakes. |

Re. Re-re-re. Retard. It prompts you as to whether or not you wish to install the adware. Just check the "I refuse..." option.
That'll teach to to pay more attention to what you're doing. |

"No, Bubba Gump is a household name"
Correction<-----
| Forest Gump wrote: | Bubba: My given name is Benjamin Buford Blue, but people call me Bubba. Just like one of them ol' redneck boys. Can you believe that?
Forrest Gump: My name's Forrest Gump. People call me Forrest Gump. |

| Well post program installations prompt you with "i accept" or "refuse" whatever but usually when you dont agree you can't install, but with Msn Plus you don't have to agree and still carry on with the installation. |
