I strongly suggest not to use that unless you know what you're doing. Cleaners like that can do more damage than solving anything like this.
Using cleaners for stuff like this is useless anyways. Cleaners have no notion of what exactly you want to do or what program you want to target and what the needed steps for a specific program are (unless they are specifically designed for it, and even then they wont always be accurate). Registry cleaners will NOT remove those keys and the other file cleaners will NOT remove the files involved for this problem. Simply succesfull uninstalling via the normal way will most likely remove more registry keys specific to the program than you would be able to remove with such automated cleaners.
But in fact, polygamy has got nothing todo with any registry key or temporary files or whatever else CCleaner might attempt to "fix".

Check if you have any other addons or patches than Messenger Plus!. Even some scripts can corrupt Windows Live Messenger. So make sure you don't have any active scripts (disable or remove them) and that you don't have any other addons or patches.
Then re-install Windows Live Messenger and Messenger Plus! (without any scripts or skins) and enable the polygamy option in Messenger Plus!. After that, restart Messenger and see if you can open another Messenger program by once again clicking on its startup icon or menu item in your Windows Start menu.

Nope....
When you click on its icon or item in the Windows Start menu it is simply started up. Nothing is installed again as the link you click on goes to the program file, not to the setup/installer file.
Polygamy works by disabling the internal check in Messenger to see if another instance is already running. Normally, the Messenger program prevents you from starting up another instance by simply closing the new instance and switching to the already running instance. By disabling this check, Messenger wont be able to quit the new instance anymore when you click on its start link for a second time (or third, or fourth, ...)
Polygamy Problem o___o???
