Re: Plug ins



Greetings Veronica,

Depends what they are.

If you're thinking of Messenger Plus! Live (http://www.msgplus.net), I'll personally vouch
for it. Although please watch during the setup as you may not want to install the "sponsor"
(adware) program that you get asked to install during the setup.

If you're thinking of something else, just reply with the name and I can tell you pretty
quickly. Also, avoid downloading anything except from official sites, "download sites" can
be quite dodgy at times.

I'm a bit of an messenger newbie, so not sure if that has already been asked
before, but here goes.

I've heard there are plug ins for messenger that will add a whole lot of
extras, i.e, being able to add sounds, seeing when contacts were last online,
and other cool things.

Problem is none of these dowload sites are affiliated with Microsoft and I'm
kind of nervous to download from a random site. Has anyone else used these
plug ins? Are they safe?

Thanks,
Veronica
