There already is/a Portuguese translator(s), but you will have to ask Patchou, I bet he will read this anyways so.

Yeah, both the soft and the website are translated into Portuguese. If you find any errors you can post them in this forum, so you help perfect your language's translation

cyberlords, like people said before, there is already a Portuguese translation.
But that is PT Portuguese, and I see that you come from Brazil. So, if you do make corrections take in account that there are differences between BR Portuguese and PT Portuguese!!
This said, here are some very important notes about the Portuguese translation that you should now first:
- There once was a BR Portuguese translation, but due the lack of updates it has been discontinued and removed.
The official translator is still edukct and he made his last update here:
Latest official BR Portuguese translation (Messenger Plus! 2.54.74)
We haven't heared from him since....
- Many people have tried to make updates, but no-one came close to make a proper translation. I suspect because making a proper/good translation is often underestimated. It takes a big effort and a very good knowledge of the language AND Messenger Plus! and it's functions. It isn't just bluntly translating English text to your language. Also, translating a computer program is a whole lot different then translating a letter.
The latest try was made by Xande_Zendron in this thread:

We haven't heared from him since....
- Also, there is a big discussion if BR Portuguese should be included or not. (but let's not take that up again, first there needs to be a proper translation)[/list]

I am Brazilian.
I am the best one to translate Portuguese BR.
The Portuguese of Portugal is very different of the Brazilian.
The site this in Portuguese of Portugal (PT).
I can make a version in Portuguese of Brazil.
