I think the installer should first check whether an older version of Plus! is being installed and if so uninstall it and afterwards install the new version.
I agree with this....
why? Plus doesn't need to be uninstalled before installing a new version.
Indeed, true, but if you don't, you're left with an old Plus! in the old directory if you installed into a new directory....
What I mean is, it would be nice if the installer offered the option to first uninstall the old version if you install the new one into another directory (or at least say it is "recommended" to uninstall first). Because, now many people have Plus!2 in \messenger plus! 2\ and Plus!3 in \messenger plus! 3\ it seems...

(although I must say, when I installed Plus!3 it nicely asked me to install in the Plus! directory, which was \msn messenger\plus!\, it didn't force me to install it in \messenger plus! 3\)
