Hum... you should edit your pot Cookie because you're not exactly right.

What you're describing with /Winstart is true, however, this behavuiour always occurs by default and has nothign to do with the recovery window. The /winstart method ensures Plus! is always loaded before Messenger when Windows starts (Plus! loads Messenger itself when it detects everything has been prepared).

The force option is here only in case of software malfunction. Some programs that are using hooks are not written properly and prevent other similar programs (like Plus!) to work properly. This happens if such program is loaded after Plus! is loaded and as Plus! tries its best to load as fast as possible, if you have such a defective program installed on your computer, you can be almost sure you'll get the problem.

The "force load" option tried to fix this problem by doing somethign very uncommon: it starts a timer and recreates its global hook every 5 seconds for a minute or so. That way, if another software hooks the syste unproperly while windows is starting, Plus! rehooks over it and the problem is solved. However, some systems may not like Plus! doing this kind of stuff and that'S why the force load option should be used only when it's necessary, it's not a toy to play with.

Hope it helps you,
