I seriously doubt it has to do with SP2, i got SP2 aswell and have no problems of the sort. .NET framework, no i don't think that affects it either.
What i can think of in your case ahmedadelfahmy is a lack of memory to run all programs you want to run. Can you tell me how much RAM your computer has? Also try closing down atleast 1 other program whilst running MSNM (with Plus!) and see if that helps.
Also sometimes a clean install will help, to do that:
- Uninstall MSNM and Plus! (including preferences, back them up beforehand: plus! > preferences > at the bottom save/load..save that file somewhere outside Plus! folders, where you can easily find it)
- Reboot
- Remove every folder in program files folder pointing towards MSN Messenger and Plus! (note the foldername in wich Plus! is installed has been changed so there's probably more than just one folder, could be why firewalls don't detect it correctly)
- Reinstall both MSNM and Plus!
- Try to log in
- Load your preferences into Plus! again if you saved em and see if you can still login.
