I added it again and added a normal MessengerPlus3 entry (without /WinStart) in HKLM => Problem solved.
So I recon Winstart doesn't run Plus! at all, it only delays MSN Messenger from being run?

In Messenger (when Plus is working fine), go to Tools > Options > General. Select the first checkbox (so it starts automatically when Windows starts) and close Messenger. Now check your registry settings in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.
There should be no entry for Messenger and 2 entries for Plus (the one with the "/WinStart" parameter will start Messenger).
