Messenger Plus adds Registry Entry! (Messenger plus 3) by ke3p_up on 10-07-2004 at 06:48 AM

hi guys:

i have 2 accounts on My XP, so I've set Messenger Plus to start in "all Users Start Menu" . But every time i login into one of the accounts, messenger plus adds itself to "my registry" and causes multiple MSN messengers to run on the next reboot. can someone tell me how can i stop Messenger plus to add its own registry entry ? plz help

Messenger Plus! will always load for all users after installing; the shortcut in the StartUp folder for all users is therefore unneeded. I don't really see why you would wish to change this behaviour.

Disabling Plus! loading at startup is therefore not recommended. If you wish to do so anyway, please take a look at is it possible to remove plus from startup? and Force Plus to load, they might be of help.
