RE: Plus auto-unistall on restart.
You can try Alternate mode:

- Plus > preferences > miscellaneous..under Messenger Plus! Automatic Recovery Options, set it to "Alternate".
- Reboot
- Start MSNM and check if it's still in alternate mode
- Ctrl alt del to go to taskmanager and in processeslist end msgplus.exe
- Now restart MSNM and see if Plus! appears in the menu, if so "alternate mode" is working fine.
- After checking you can remove Plus! from startuplist by going to: start > run ..type: msconfig <enter>, go to startuplist and uncheck MsgPlus (this step isn't really needed, if need be Plus! will switch to "Allternate" by itself, just check if it's still set to "Alternate" every now and then).

Alternate mode is new and only available in Windows 2000/XP. Make sure you got no programs running preventing writing in the registry whilst setting it to "alternate mode".

If you use another OS, try "default mode - forced". If that doesn't work you can put Messenger Plus! in your startup folder.

Edit: to start Plus! you don't have to reinstall it, you can go to taskmanager (ctrl alt del), in the menu click "File" > new task...then browse to MsgPlus.exe (C:\Program Files\MessengerPlus! 3) and doubleclick it.
