RE: Plus! auto detection
Occassionally when I'm bored I'll have a look at the Messenger Plus Contact Information for a few of my contacts and if it displays the common "may or may not have Plus! installed..." message then I'll click the "Check for Plus" button which will open a new convo and performa a standard ping. If they don't have it installed then they will probably reply with something like "???" in which case you have the unique opportunity to introduce them to Messenger Plus. After all, don't you want your contacts to be able to view your custom status', messages and actually see any of the convenient text formatting you can put into your messages?
