[Setup] -> Is32Bits by r_k on 03-30-2006 at 12:30 PM
While I was translating this section I didn't quite understand what was really ment by "Press OK to download a compatible version of Messenger Plus! is available."
Does pressing OK button check if there's a compatible version available or does it start downloading instead? For now I use the second one, but if anything changes, let me know.

I guess it starts downloading directly. The entry is, I presume, for possible future 64bit-only Plus! releases. Not that I'm saying there will be any, I am really just having a guess.
That is, if Patchou would release a 64-bit Plus! and someone attempted to run it on a 32-bit Windows, then the message would show up (and would download a 32-bit version which would of course exist)

You see, the problem is with the sentence itself:
"Press OK to download a compatible version of Messenger Plus! is available."
From the [Setup] -> Is64Bits section I found this:
"Press OK to check if a compatible version of Messenger Plus! is available."

quote:It's quite easy to understand. Currently, Plus! is programmed for 32 bits processors, which are widely used. But with the arrival of 64 bits processors, Patchou might make a 64-compatible version.

When a 32 bits user tries to install a 64 bits Plus!, the 1st message will appear because there was, is and will always be a 32 bits compatible version of MsgPlus!. When you click OK, it will download directly.
When a 64 bits user tries to install a 32 bits Plus!, the 2nd message will appear because Patchou may not have created a compatible version yet. When you click OK, it will check if so.
Do you understand my crappy explanation a bit?

ops... r_k is right, there's a typo in the file. Here's the correct sentence:
Is32Bits=You are currently using a 32bits version of Messenger.\nPress OK to download a compatible version of Messenger Plus!.
(basically, jsut remove the "is available" at the end). The message for 32bits indicates that a version is ready for download, the message for 64bits just tells the user a version may be ready (because there's none yet but there probably will be with Vista 64).

Oops... didn't noticed the red color! 
Sorry, r_k, and good you've mentioned it here.
