O.P. Suggestion: Block Messenger on Startup
Hi, MiK from Italy.
I would suggest this option: "Block Messenger on Startup", allowing automatic login, so privacy can be trusted if there is a reboot (with automatic login)
I think this will be useful.
MiK.

But Messenger would still open.
Go to Start > Run > type "msconfig" (without quotes). View the Startup tab and untick msnmsgr.

Errmm excuse me -!Felu!- but....
Tools > options > general "automaticly run MSNM(WLM) when i log onto windows"
Why would they have put that checkbox in?

Patchou is busy with the upcoming release of Messenger Plus! Live.
Thanks for your suggestion, but I doubt it will be added unfortunately.

RE: Suggestion: Block Messenger on Startup
How about making a script?
Very Easy to do...
EDIT:
In a VERY easy way:
code: function OnEvent_Initialize(bMessengerStart)
{
MsgPlus.LockMessenger(true);
}
That will lock msn as soon as it starts
EDIT2: Thinking about it, it's kinda useless, cause Plus! won't go out of Locked mode if msn disconnects...

Unfortunatey, none of us actually have Messenger Plus! Live at this time (except for people with the leaked version) so we can't use scripts.

Of course, but Plus! will go out of Locked mode if there's a reboot of the system.
Anyway script idea is good, I'll try it on Plus Live... hoping in your help
