Grrr Damn sister. by Curtis on 11-18-2005 at 01:46 AM
My sister is totally computer illiterate and she keeps fucking up all my plugins. I was wondering if you could make it so plus! only works for one account? It gets annoying having to fix msn every day.

Lock out the preferences for Plus! on her account?

There currently is no way to do this. The way MsgPlus! is hooked onto MSN Messenger this is impossible.

techincally you should be able to, just have plus startup when you login to windows, but disable it when she logs into windows (remove from her startup list).

password protect it. thats the simple way of doing it.
create a back up, so just run the back-up everytime you restart rather than mess around re-configuring. thats shud do it to.

How do you password protect it? If it has anything to do with different windows accounts, I can't do it because we have the same account.
RE: Grrr Damn sister. by Underlord on 11-19-2005 at 05:31 AM
Go into "Plus! --> Preferences --> Privacy Protection --> Passwords" and enable "preferences lock-down" with a password she doesn't know.
Also you could lock MSN Messenger or the computer while you arn't using it.

If I do that she will just get mad at me and my dad will make me turn it off, I just want to disable it for her account.

On her MSN account she can't change the "Plus!" settings for your account

I know but with stuffplug some of the things don't work for her because she fucks up her msn so much and she just disables everything.

I think thats a good idea (as suggested above) assuming she is "totally computer illiterate"
RE: Grrr Damn sister. by QtanJ on 11-19-2005 at 11:29 AM
You can use one of theese.
Remove it from startup(for the single user you both use) and then when you want to use plus you go to run and write c:\Program Files\MessengerPlus! 3\MsgPlus.exe or if you have a different path write that instead.
Make a shortout to it she don't know and set a hotkey. That shortout may be in the same folder as msgplus since it's only function is hotkey.

No John Anderton they use the same windows account so you have to explain better how to remove it from that user if that's going to work the last you suggested.

Well if it's for her benefit, then tell her not to touch the settings.
