Help...anyone! My 12 year old downloaded something called Messenger Plus 1.1.5 under her user name. Now every time I sign on under my user name I get this annoying message: Messenger Plus was not able to retrieve "AIM's Startup information from the registry. Please start AIM first, then start Messenger Plus to resolve this issue This program she downloaded is one of those free for the first 20 days, but whatever it is, it did something to my registry and I keep getting this message every time I sign on. When I signed on under her name I see the program there but I can't find any uninstall so I'm not quite sure what to do other than strangle my daughter since she has been told many times not to download without my permission! I might mention I am running Windows XP and this Messenger Plus is some software that has nothing to do with AOL but somehow runs with AIM. Any suggestions on how to get rid of this correctly?
