Messenger tends to slow down when improper compatibility settings are set for msnmsgr.exe. The setup of Messenger Plus! now resets the compatibility settings set for Messenger in Windows Vista and above.

It doesn't prevent you from running in Messenger compatibility mode though. You'll just have to re-apply the setting when you re-install/upgrade Plus!. The reason why Plus! does this is because most people will just forget they ever configured the compatibility mode. Once it starts causing problems they'll spend ages trying to figure out what is causing it, or they'll report problems on here or on Microsoft support where other people will then waste their time trying to figure out why these things are happening.

Although I agree Plus! should at least notify the user before it does this.
