On IRC, we also had someone reporting something similar afew days ago. By uninstalling Hopper it was fixed.
The problem was that when he started Messenger, Messenger freezed and did nothing for about 5-10 secs...
After much installing/uninstalling and enabling/disabling it was determined that it was the hopper plugin.
He had Messenger 6.2.0137 and Plus! 3.01.94. Dunno what Hopper version though, nor the Windows version...

Hopper does use a huge array, so it could be the problem. I myself don't experience it though... Don't worry, the version I'm working on right now uses linked-list so it should use less memory. Right now Hopper rather interferes with SS3 and just some minutes ago I seemed to "fix" it

Theres going to be a new version of SS3 released soon, so hopefully we can get it sorted. Any ideas how they interfere with each other?

It appears to be like this...
- Sign in.
- Use a plugin reloader to reload the plugins.
- If a plugin's Initialize function contains SendMessage() API, which (for example) is used to tell Plus! to display a notification toast, SendMessage() throws an exception back. That's why the Hopper problem (in the post whose link was posted earlier above) occurs, since I use SendMessage() in Initialize() to retrieve Messenger version from Plus!.
Currently I use a stupid Callback Timer to avoid directly calling SendMessage in Initialize() and it seems to work fine...
Well, Dempsey, I don't really suppose it's Hopper only that interferes with SS3. Plugin Reloader :: The next generation by Optimism_ has this problem too (at least on my computer) as it shows "Loading plugins" toast in Initialize() and that requires SendMessage() too.

Well, I need not only to know Messenger's version (get_property(MMESSENGERPROP_VERSION,*)), but also if the Messenger is Windows Messenger or not
