What saralk said....

as for the answer to this:

The notes (just as all the preferences, settings and what not) are stored in the registry. Nothing is saved in files.

- All the stuff from Messenger Plus!, like settings and all, can be found under:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\MsgPlus2
Everything under that key is saved with the import/export settings wizard...

- The notes you're talking about are stored in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\MsgPlus2\<YourLoginEmail>\Contacts\<ContactHash>\Notes

- General stuff (which is only used by Plus! itself internally) is stored under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Patchou\MsgPlus2
