Really nice,but why every skin now requires Messenger Plus! Live :-( I remember when you only needed to download and patch something.

And you really believe if you choose that you don't install any adware? How does it stay alive and free? eh?

I can assure you that Plus! does not contain spyware, adware, or any sort of badware that would keep you from installing it.

Patchou isn't the type.

I know,but there is a lot I don't need from Messenger plus and most skins don't remove ads :-(

Kudo, have you tried A-Patch? http://apatch.org/

And you really believe if you choose that you don't install any adware? How does it stay alive and free? eh?

The point of adware is to show you an ad and get your attention. Therefore, if you don't see ads plastered onto your screen, and have Messenger Plus installed, then chances are that no, you didn't install any adware.

Oh it re-adds that big annoying ad?

Well nvm. was going to use it

looks nice. good job tho.

thanks anyways.

I'll second that.

Shame, nice skin some with a nice amount of customisability.

Yes,I am using that now,but MSN Plus live skins break it and still show adds :-(

if u only do ur job and search inside the skin u will see that in the skin theres a file to remove ads......

Are you talking to me?

Cause as far as I know my job is to try to save your or anybody life,not to look up to remove anything to remove...that is way the world has a balance otherwise...

lets stick to what each one suppose to do...and by the time I will wait till somebody who has the job will fix ;-)

Have a nice day!!

    • Frankly, I blame whoever is writing such articles. "A big improvement/update and/or new feature is now available to everyone! Also, use this unofficial tweak tool to enable it because it actually isn't available to you yet officially and might not in fact even be entirely ready or whatever, hence why it is perhaps not enabled for you*. But it's great and you should enable it!" I mean there's nothing wrong with sharing info about some feature you might need to enable via unofficial means, of course. It's just that these articles tend to essentially end up being two news pieces in one, and one of them tends to be a bit misleading. (*Yes, yes, the "it's a controlled rollout!" thing. Not a fan of that one either. The argument, not the actual rollout.)
    • Thank you. Will do. I read in the release notes that editor config might be at play here.
    • Actually, I think even Microsoft doesn't know how to control it
    • OpenAI is making Codex more useful in Chrome and the cloud by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI's Codex now has more than 5 million users, up nearly 4x from earlier this year. To further accelerate Codex's growth among developers, OpenAI today announced that it has agreed to acquire Ona, a company that builds secure cloud execution and orchestration technology for developers. Ona will enable developers to run Codex with persistent and controlled cloud infrastructure for long-running agentic workflows. Right now, most Codex execution happens locally on developers' laptops and PCs, and the agents work continuously for hours. Through Ona, OpenAI aims to make Codex agents keep working for days without being tied to a user’s local machine or an active session. This will be an important capability for enterprises that want to deploy AI agents in production while maintaining control over infrastructure, data, security boundaries, credential scope, logging, and review workflows. Like any acquisition, the deal is still subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Until the deal closes, OpenAI and Ona will continue to operate as separate companies. After closing, Ona’s team will join the Codex team to improve developer workflows. Alongside the Ona acquisition announcement, OpenAI today introduced a few Codex updates. Developers can now save Codex rate limit resets and use them later instead of losing them when they are not needed immediately. OpenAI is also adding a referral option where users can invite a friend to Codex and get a saved rate limit reset. OpenAI today also announced a developer mode for browser use in Chrome and the Codex in-app browser. With this mode, Codex can use the Chrome DevTools Protocol to debug web apps, inspect pages, and work more directly with browser-based development workflows. Developers can use this when they want Codex to profile JavaScript, inspect console output and network traffic, examine web page states including the DOM and applied styles, and more.
