Try it without Plus!, though that really shouldn't make a difference. Just want to rule everything out.

Aside from that, check your webcam drivers are installed correctly, and run the Audio and Video Wizard in MSN.

Right Click my computer>>>Properties>>>Device Manager
In device manager look for your webcam if its not there you need to reinstall it.

if the wizard is picking it up means its probably not installed.

If the Audio and Video Wizard picks up the webcam, then it is installed. Still, it's worth checking Device Manager, to see if it's reporting conflicts.

Try reinstalling your drivers, and the latest version of Msn Messenger.

Have you got a high-speed internet?
