If you keep getting this message, restart your computer.
It's impossible to get this message when you download Plus!. Downloading is not the same as starting/running a program or installing.
Anyways, you get this error, during the installation, because the loader of Messenger Plus! Live, msimg32.dll, has been locked.
This means that it can't be updated. To solve this you need to make sure that Windows Live Messenger (and MSN Messenger for that matter) is not running and that Messenger Plus! is not running.
The best thing you can do to make sure of that is to remove Windows Live Messenger, MSN Messenger (if you happen to still use it too) and Messenger Plus! from your Windows startup folder and from the startup entries in the registry. After you've done that reboot your computer.
Another, but more crude, method to do this and without the need to reboot your computer, is to kill all the processes involved. To do this:
1) Press CTRL-ALT-DEL to open the task manager.
2) Go to the processes tab and kill all of these processes: msnmsgr.exe, msgplus.exe, msmsgs.exe
3) Restart the Messenger Plus! Live installer.
