First: like you said, you have Vista and not Win XP or Win 2000
Second: read my last post. Also if you add the string on the registry key, you don't resolve anything I think because MS Dlg Shell replace unrecognized font names with system fonts. The solutions is for chars that not are in the Unicode table.

Microsoft says:
When the MS Shell Dlg mapping changes due to changing the system locale, this may have an unexpected effect on how programs display text, specifically when a program that uses MS Shell Dlg expects glyphs to be available from MS Shell Dlg that are not in the font to which it is currently mapped. This typically results in the display of the "default glyph." The default glyph varies from font to font, but commonly looks similar to a pipe symbol (|) or a small square, or rectangular box. You can manually change the font mapping if a single font will suit the needs of both the computer dialogs and the localized programs that are having display problems.
Third: that help page says that if chars aren't supported, you can see the pipe "|" or a square char... and however Messenger Plus is not in this category: "specifically when a program that uses MS Shell Dlg expects glyphs to be available from MS Shell Dlg that are not in the font to which it is currently mapped"!!!
