O.P. English language errors [PATCHOU THIS MEANS YOU!]
Hello my darlings. I'm loving the new version and just popped by to point out a couple of English mistakes/typos, so, à la Paciullo:
Hi!
I found some errors in the English translation.
Section: [Window.ConfigWizard]
Current text: LblTextFormat=Advanced Text Formating
Fixed text: LblTextFormat=Advanced Text Formatting
Section: [Window.Pref.Scripts]
Current text: LblNote=Important: security wise, scripts have the same power as any other executable program, only install scripts that come from trusted sources.
Fixed text: LblNote=Important: security-wise, scripts have the same power as any other executable program; only install scripts that come from trusted sources.
Note about this one: the hyphen in security-wise is grammatically necessary; the comma after program is also wrong and should be replaced, either by the semicolon as shown, or by a dash ("program - only") or new sentence ("program. Only") depending on stylistic preference.
Section: [Window.ConfigWizard]
Current text: AutoUpdateWarning=Auto-update notifications have been disabled.\n\nIn addition to bringing new features and bug fixes, Messenger Plus! updates also insure full compatibility with new versions of Messenger. You may encounter some serious issues in Messenger if Messenger Plus! is not kept up to date.\n\nAre you sure you want to disable auto-update notifications in Messenger Plus! ?

Note about this one: The changed word is "insure". I've checked three different online dictionaries and none suggest this is an acceptable synonym for "ensure".
Please, anyone who speaks English, confirm these modifications (please, anyone who speaks English, confirm these modifications).
Thank you.
[edit] Just caught another one...
