O.P. Why doesn't my Messenger Plus automatically load at windows start-up?
Instead I have to go to My Computer> Local Disk C> Program Files> Messenger Plus 3> and click the MsgPlus icon (Butterfly one)

then i have to exit out of msn, and wait a bit, and it either automatically loads onto messenger, or a pop up comes up nd asks me if i want to fix it and restart msn, fix it permanently once the computer restars, and another option....



edit: can this be moved to support

Do you have the latest version of MSN (6.2/7.0) and Plus (3.54)?

Edit: Also, using the forum search will give you more results (that's how I found Sunshine's post ;)).

Do you have any antivirus/antispyware software running? Sometimes they prevent MsgPlus from adding the entry in the registry that makes it run automatically when Windows starts. Try disabling your antivirus/antispyware and reinstall MsgPlus.

Try ignoring msgplus proccess in Microsoft Antispyware

Run Mic. Antisyware and select the ignore option always for msgplus, it will be work ok.
