Every time I open MSN Messenger after turning on my computer I find that the Plus! menu is not listed. After a few seconds the Messenger Plus! - Recovery Options windows pops up. I've tried both "Repair and restart Messenger (recommended)" and "Repair and try to fix permanently when computer starts" several times as this problem is happening every time I turn on my computer.

I've tried allowing Plus! in both Microsoft Anti-Spyware and in Norton Internet Security. Still no success.

Does anybody know how to solve this?


Thanks,

Try uninstalling and reinstalling MSG Plus!... if that doesn't work, try uninstalling and reinstalling MSN Messenger too... But it sounds like it should only have to be Plus!

Thanks. I tried it. No sucess though.

Try changing the way Plus! attaches itself to MSN.

Plus! > Preferences > General > Miscellaneous > Messenger Attach Method.

Try changing it to Alternate.

Well...it worked for a bit. The Recovery Window did it's thing and Plus would load properly as long as I didn't have MSN loading on Windows startup.

I was using MSN on my father's side of XP and I got the Recovery Window popup. I hit "Do not show this window" or something along those lines, thinking that meant just for that one session, and if not it wouldn't matter since he doesn't use MSN anyway. Well...I'm back on my side of XP and Plus is loading in the MSN menu, and the Recovery Window won't even show now.

Any ideas?

And thanks for the previous help.
