See here for a list of more programs which do no behave properly or have other issues and thus cause Messenger Plus! to malfunction.
Note that this list is by no means complete. So, make sure you have properly uninstalled (note 'properly uninstalled', not just removed) all other Messenger add-ons to start with, to find the culprint.
Unfortunately, none of those apply to me, and I uninstalled everything having to do with both MP!L and Windows Live Essentials, rebooted, and reinstalled everything. I know that the list isn't complete, but I'm not about to go about, and uninstall everything, just so I can get this program to work.

However, it has a running process named "PlusService.exe" The name might indeed be confusing in this case. It is not a Windows service, it is just a normal process that is running most of the time.
And yeah, that explains a bit. According to Task Manager, it's running. I suppose that's whats responsible for detecting when Windows Live Messenger is running?
