RE: Messenger + Registery Problem
The reason why your "ad-watcher" reports a change is because MSN Messenger is set to "run at win startup". Now, when you use Plus!, Plus! needs to be started BEFORE MSN Messenger in order to run and hook properly. Plus! ensures it is started up first by detecting and removing that key when MSN Messenger is closed. After that, Plus! will replace it by it's own key so that it can be started up first (and after that it automaticly runs MSN Messenger). Otherwise there is no way in knowning what will start up first, Plus! or Messenger. This proces is repeated every time you close MSN Messenger.


So either:
* Remove the setting in MSN Messenger "run at win startup"
* Remove Messenger Plus!
* Make your own small startup script which starts up Plus!, wait a few secs and then run MSN Messenger (and you can leave the "run at win startup" unticked in that way) and add a run-key value for the script <--- not officialy recommended and only to be used at own risk and if you have the knowledge...
